My pc is **** right now so I am doing an entire make over.


I heard of a program before that could clone a drive and you could put it in a new pc and it would work? I don't remember it because that was a few years or so ago.

I will be replacing my tiny 60gb SSD with a 250GB SSD and sell it.

Well the new PC has to be similar is spec, as when you clone a drive you're also cloning all the drivers as well which might conflict with the new system.

It's always best to just backup your data and install a fresh copy of Windows on the new machine and then just migrate the data over.
