Too much stuff just isn't working anymore on XP so I've decided to add a SSD and Win 7. What issues am I likely to run into? My thought is to unplug everything except the new SSD and the optical drive, plug in the DVD and turn it on. I do have the software and license. I also have the CD that came with the mobo when I build it 10 years ago if needed. I've done a few OS installs, most recently a couple of weeks ago, but that was the first time in a decade.
Assuming all that goes ok, would I hit escape to enter BIOS or F12 for Boot Menu once I get both drives plugged in? And how much am I going to have to reload in terms of software, I know it will see other drives, but often software seems to tie into the OS.
Anything else I should know?
