Recently I bought new PC parts except the HDD or SSD. I connected my old HDD on the new system, everything started up, windows loaded. I'm going to re-install Windows just to be stable and work fine. Well, now the problem, I want to save my old files, the old system is Windows 10, two discs (C and D) windows is written on C, I'm going to install cracked Windows 7 via disc that I own. How to save the files which I need? Is it necessary to send to the USB flash drive the files I need and then send back to the new Windows? I do not own any drives except my old HDD, where the old windows is installed and has an ability of loading. Should I clean up unnecessary files from the disc D then put the files on it which I want to save, then when I'll be installing, what should I do? If there is a video where I can solve my problem, please, send the link. My new parts:
i5 - 3470
GTX 960 EVGA SSC 2 GB
2X4 GB RAM
EVGA 500B PSU
& etc.
Thanks foretel, I hope you can help me!
