Dead progams in old HDD after fresh OS install on SSD

[Axerith]

Hello,
I just upgraded my PC, including adding an SSD for the Windows 7 OS. I have a ton of programs on the old HDD (which still has the old OS also) but most of them are broken because the OS being used is on the SSD. How can I fix this without reinstalling each progam? Also, the SSD has ~13GB space left after OS, how can I make updates/downloads go to a large HDD?

The Info for defaulting user files to storage you find here http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/270102-14-useful-articles-part
Programs have to be installed under the OS they are going to be run from to work.

If you're using a new OS, then you have to reinstall any programs and applications. Files can be copied over with no problem.
