Using my 3TB Seagate Hard drive, WET tells me my Asus Windows 7 old files (129GB) won't fit into the 320GB available on my new Windows 8.1 C Drive on my Dell Inspiron. Whassup? TIA John

Hey there, John.

This might be due to different versions of Windows, especially if one OS is 32-bit and the other 64-bit.
Here's an example:


You could use an external drive and simply copy-paste the files on it and then copy-paste them on your new laptop's HDD. The programs would have to be reinstalled though.

Hope that helps.
