I have been watching all the you tube videos and reading posts and bought into the hype. I'm adding an ssd to my desktop computer. I want to have a boot drive with my apps the (OCZ Agility 2 OCZSSD2-2AGTE60G 2.5" 60GB SATA II MLC) and then my 1.5TB WD drive for videos music and all the other files. I am even more excited when I saw a video on you tube that alt-tab between game and desktop was significantly faster. I don't have a ton of $$ so I'm making a hybrid.
Question
Do I have to run a fresh install of Win 7 on the SSD? OR can I copy and paste the windows, program files and program files (x86) folders to the ssd? Would that work? I don't want to install EVERYTHING all over again. Has anyone ran into this? Or is there a way to copy the folders after windows 7 installs? Any help would be sweet, like shortcuts etc.
ASUS P7P55D Pro, Core i7 860 8.0 gb ram (all 7.5 WEI score except my hard drive a 5.9) Home build.
Thanks!
