Alright, So I'll give everyone some details about the situation first.
I just Built my PC up from scratch and it's rather nice, I got myself a new 1.5TB Drive to, And it's a SLAVE drive, For extra storage. From all the computer parts I have replaced, I basically have a second computer (my old one) without a drive.
So I am considering doing 1 of 2 things, Buy a hard drive for it, so my Girlfriend can use it, and stay off my new set up, Or Give her my old hard drive, (which is only 230gigs), And buy myself a new primary drive, And reinstall Win7 and start new, Which i really don't want to do. I Feel new things that cost my money, Should go to me, and she can use all the old second hand stuff from my old PC parts i fixed up for her.
The only reason I don't want to buy myself a new hard drive, Is because I Don't want to have to reinstall Win7, Start from scratch, Reinstall my 30 games, All my info, Customization, and millions of programs, I love my set up, I love my settings, And to be blunt, I wouldn't sell my PC for 10 grand because of the attachments I get from it. It literally breaks my heart when I have to fresh install.
Now the question, If I purchased a new 7200RPM HARD DRIVE, Can I clone everything so that I can BOOT UP Win 7, all my programs, and everything will be EXACTLY THE SAME, as if I was using my Primary drive now, But of course, I would have 1.5GIGS more space...
I want to beable to do that, And then i can just set that one in place of this current primary, and give the old PC that one to use.
(Another question, Can i use that win7 registered twice on a PC?) Or do I have to re-register it... because she's planing on using the internet with it... Thanks for the help, Please get back to me ASAP.
If you need more info let me know, Thank again..
