Hello, i have just made a new system and have used the old HDD inside it. i haven't done anything to it before putting it in the new PC, IE clearing it or performing any type of preparation. now the systems disk is at 100% and the system is running really slow and it shouldn't. i don't know what to do and i am at a dead point at the moment. BTW i an using the same win10 that was on the old system, i literally unplugged it and put it in the new one.

my specs are
Ryzen 5 1600x at 4.1
1070ti
16gb ddr4 3200 corsair vengeance rgb
B450 mortar
600w bronze psu
the hdd is a 500gb do not know how old it is peice of crapp

if anyone can give me a solution to this problem it will be much appreciated
 
Solution
Your system is trying to figure out why none of the old hardware is responding. It doesn't realize that it's in a new computer. You will need to format and reinstall Windows.
