Is it possible to move a hard drive to a machine of the same make/model with the same operating system and bit size? Would it boot properly? Would I run into any future issues?
 
If its a retail version of windows, it will likely boot and reconfigure okay, windows will have to be re-activated. If its an OEM version of windows, you will have to call microsoft and explain why you are moving it to another computer, they will then decide whether or not to give you a new activation code.
