So I messed up bad, I planned on using my old hard drive on my new computer but I forgot to transfer important files to a USB and now I can't get my old computer to work at all, the monitor won't display anything for that computer. I checked my new computer it worked fine but I didn't have the hard drive installed.
So I am part of Microsoft Dreamspark and I can download Windows 7 professional so I can have it on my USB, but my operating system on my old computer was home. Is there a way I can install the new operating system without deleting the contents?
Or is it possible to still use my old hard drive, which is a SATA on my new computer? Would I have to uninstall the old motherboard? Is that possible to do from my new computer?
Please I would like any method.
