Hey i have a two part question, any help would be appreciated. I have a new ssd and want to install windows 8.1 on it. However my os is currently on my 1tb hdd. I dont want to clone my entire hard drive.

Question 1... Would i be best to buy specific cloning software just to transfer the os and then uninstal off old hdd? Also how do you specifically uninstal just an os?

Question 2....or is it best to format hdd and clean instal on ssd and will i be able to do this with a licence brought with a custom gaming rig from palicomp (uk).

Any help would be awesome cheers guys

What step are you at?

You would install windows on an SSD the same way you would install a HDD
