Hey there, Technoob1999.

Basically if the OS is not on a separate partition from your other files, you won't be able to do that now. Even if you find a 3rd party program capable of doing that, you'd still have to backup all your data in advance so that you don't risk losing anything.
So basically you should uninstall all the unnecessary programs and backup all of your personal data and then clone the OS. You could check out this tutorial: http://lifehacker.com/5837543/how-to-migrate-to-a-solid-state-drive-without-reinstalling-windows.

Hope that helps. Please let me know how it goes.
