I have a computer that gave up the ghost. The hard drive is perfect, so I want to move it to another computer as the boot drive. I have the original win7 OS disc of that drive. I don't want to lose the data that is on the drive, so my question is: If I put that drive in the newer computer and boot from the usb drive (where I have the win7 os files ) can I setup this drive as the boot drive for this computer where it can pickup the different hardware ( motherboard etc ). I don't want to format drive as I want the data that is on the drive. I guess is this possible without too much hassle.
