Here is my situation. I want to do an overhaul: new motherboard, processor, graphics, and sound. I have two hdd - the first is the drive with Win7 (OEM) and the second is a near empty drive for just misc stuff.
My question comes down to this: if I upgrade my components can I still use the drive with Win7 on it? I do not wish to lose that data. If I must I can load a new copy of windows on the second (empty) drive, but I will still need access to the data on my current, primary, drive.
Any suggestions?
thanks!
