Ok so im not new to computer building but for a budget 3d workstation build i was hoping to take my windows 7 64 bit from my old gaming rig and transfer it to my new build. Here's whats going on, i got a new mobo for my workstation and an ssd for the build. My old gaming rig has windows 7 64 bit on the hdd. I need the hard drives for the workstation. So is it possisble to transfer the old OS to a new mobo and transfer it to the ssd from the hdd? If so can someone tell me how or point me to a place with the instructions to do so.

My workstation build.

AsRock z77 extreme4, i5 quad core intergrated intel graphics 2500, 8 gigs gskil ripjaws z overclockable, ati firepro v5700 1 gig. This is just a budget build for rendering and graphics upgrades will come. Suggetions for the future upgrades will be nice and very appreciated :)

I got the old disks for sure, i never thow my computer boxes and manuels away. So its just a matter of installing it on the ssd. But i thought the os install was one computer only?
