W7 install swapped from one board to another

[RoyaltyAce]

Hi all,

recently i build a new PC. But when i tried to install windows 7 i got the following message: "a required cd/dvd drive device driver is missing".

i looked this up and i tried all solutions (as far as i know). changing usb ports, updating bios, installing sata drivers. eventually i gave up, and eventhough ppl didnt recommend it i started a W7 install on a laptop.
Then, in the installation process (when w7 installer restarts itself and then continues installing after restart) i swapped the ssd in my new pc and contued the installation.

Now, everything seems to be working just fine, key worked and everything.
I havent read or seen any thread where someone did the swap the same way as i did.

So my question is: is there a chance that this is gonna go horribly wrong? should i have used sysprep instead? or will W7 be working just fine as is?

These are my specs:
MSI b150 gaming m3
intel i5 6600k
intel 120gb ssd
16gb kingston ram 2666 mhz (clocked back to 2133mhz because of mobo)
MSI gtx1070 gaming x


Thanks in advance!

You really should be installing Win10 on to that system to unlock all the goodness that Skylake has to offer.

allright, ill upgrade to win10 asap.
ive noticed some stutter in games while fps stays high, dont know if that could be related though.

thanks a lot for your reply.

Installed w10, everything worked perfectly.
i assumed it was the board but after you send me that link i did some more research and found out that its no good trying to install w7 on skylake.
