Hello. First time using this site for my own purposes. I was just wondering if it's possible to use the same HDD I had in my old computer I built, except on a new computer that I am building. All the parts are new, so a new motherboard and everything...
The thing I'm concerned about is the operating system. I'm running Windows 8.1 64bit that I installed using an OEM. I figured I'd do the same with a new OEM I got on this new computer (same exact OS), but I'm not exactly sure how that would work considering it's got the windows files already on it? I haven't opened the disc yet because I want clarification on this first before I void anything and any precautions or steps I should take so I don't corrupt anything.
I hope I have clarified enough.
