How do I use my old SATA as my primary boot drive?

Zero Crimsoneye · Dec 20, 2013

I have installed a new motherboard and tried to boot windows with my old SATA which was a no go. Went out and got a smaller SATA just so I can install windows and have it boot. I want to use my old hard drive as my primary boot device so I can retain all the settings I had on that. Was wondering how I would go about this if it is at all possible. I'm running Windows 7 and the motherboard is an ASUS M5A99FX Pro R2.0

What system did the old drive come out of and what version of windows was it running?

Both Windows 7. The old drive came out of my old desktop which had a different motherboard.

I need the info on the old system, if built it what motherbd was it, if its pre-built (dell, hp...) what model is it?

Also need to know the specific version of windows.
Was it oem, upgrade, full retail plus home, pro, or ultimate?

The old system and this one are both running windows 7 home, the last computer was pre built from Ibuypower, forgot the make of the board it was about 3 years ago and new egg pulled it.
