And i bought a 120 gb SSD to boot the windows faster and stuff
But when i connect the ssd with the windows He doesnt want to boot up. like it shows just a Blinking cursor
and the mother has sata 2 support that supports ssd's
and when i boot this ssd on my gaming pc.

SATA port(s) in that MB may be SATA1 and most modern SSDs will not work unless at least SATA2.

Because motherboard of your old computer doesn't support UEFI boot.

You installed windows on another pc in UEFI mode.
Then you transplanted this drive to your old computer (not UEFI compatible).
And now you're wandering, why it doesn't boot.

Do clean install of windows on your old pc.

Yea, I installed clean windows on the old PC
But it still shows the blinking coursor.
Like in the windows installation it says like I can't install Windows on that hardware because I need to turn on the disk controller on Bios. But I don't have that function On Bios. Might I need to modify the Bios or something.
