Preparing to Move Hard Drive to Another Computer
Preparing to Move Hard Drive to Another Computer
To remove the devices from device manager when taking a HD from one computer to another, simply: 1. Run Regedit 2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ and delete the Enum section 3. This removes all of the hardware specific settings |

Re: Preparing to Move Hard Drive to Another Computer
First of all you need to do a complete virus/spyware scan.
It would be best to do it from safe mode (or you could connect your hdd to a friend's computer and scan from his clean system). After cleaning or assuring that the data you want to backup is virus free do some archiving and copy it on another hdd or write some dvd's. |

Re: Preparing to Move Hard Drive to Another Computer
it's still more stable to do a fresh install.
cleaner, faster, and no carry-over problems Last edited by wcogent; 09-09-2010 at 05:19 AM.. |
