Hello all, I am building a new system and need some advice. I want to install windows 7 64 on a new SSD drive I bought but I want to still use my old hard drive that has windows 7 32bit on it. I have backed up the files onto my external but am worried I forgot some. Any suggestions, can I uninstall windows off the old hard drive but still keep the files I want for now till I'm sure I have everything I need off of it.

Thanks
