I am building a PC and have all the parts but an operating system.
The current PC I'm using is a prebuilt computer I bought from Best Buy and is running on Windows 8, is it at all possible to move Windows 8 from this computer to my new one when I am done building it?
My old plan was to just take the HDD from this computer and move it over to the new one but after some research I heartbreakingly found out that will not work. I'm a Highschool student and very short on funds so I plan on reformatting this HDD and reinstalling Windows 8. As I said before, is this possible or will I have to buy a copy of Windows?
