Moving Win7 Ent OS drive to another PC
Hi,
My Dell Optiplex 740 (AMD) is dying, and my company's IT has given me a Optiplex 745 (Intel) as a replacement.
I'm a very lazy person , so naturally, I tried moving the drive with Windows 7 Enterprise x64 to the new machine.
It didn't work:
* Shortly after boot up, it will restart itself and go into repair mode
* It will not be able to repair itself
* Starting in Safe Mode also failed
As far as I know, the two PCs are completely different, except the graphic card and hard drives are the same.
Is there anyway to "repair" this so it will work on the new machine? I'm avoiding reinstall since I really want to preserve my settings.
Thanks in advance.
