I have just received a new computer from CyberpowerPC . When I got it , I installed Mcafee, did some win 7 updates, and installed the latest graphics drivers. Now the 32Gb ssd (c) drive is full. These apps and upgrades didn't ask for an install location, but automatically installed on the c drive. I am not familiar with this type of setup, but it seems funny to have a system drive of only 32Gb. Meanwhile I have a 1.5 Tb D drive sitting there empty. What I'd like to do is image the C drive over to the D drive and boot up on it. I don't know if this is possible.
So my problem is , how do I move win7 from the ssd drive to a partition on my other 1.5Tb drive and boot from it.
Of course , I didn't get a win7 disk , just an activation code, so a clean re-install would mean me buying a new copy of win7. I did read where imaging from ssd to hd is not possible due to fat irregularities. I hope I don't have to buy a full copy of win7.... CyberpowerPC has yet to reply , although is it the weekend.
Any ideas what I should do ?
