Replace Cisco WIC

I am not real familiar with Cisco Routers.  I have a 1760 and we think the wic might be going bad.  I have another 1760 that I am not using.  If I replace the WIC will I have to make any changes to the configuration?

Not as long as it is the exact same WIC.  Keep in mind the WIC's are not hot-swappable so you'll need to power off the router to change out the WIC.  Make sure you "write mem" before you shut off the router to keep your current configuration.

How do I tell if they are exactly the same?  I bought them all at the same time and they are both 1760s
