If they replaced the motherboard with an EXACT same model (or one with a similar chipset), then Windows would not need to be reinstalled and, yes, the viruses would still be on the machine because nothing on the hard drive was changed, meaning all the data that was on it (programs, personal files, viruses and all) is still on it.

As for removing the viruses:
I suggest you go to the Malware Forum and run all the steps located in the START HERE. These self-help tools will help you clean up 70% of problems on your own. If you are still having problems after doing the steps, then please post a HiJackThis Log in THAT forum.
If you are still having problems after being given a clean bill of health from the malware expert, then please return to THIS thread and we will pursue other options to help you solve your current problem(s).
