Moving Windows 7 from one HD to another
I recently bought a laptop, it came with Windows 7 Home Premium. I ended up getting another HD on it, and I got my hands on a Windows 7 Ultimate disk. Thing is this second HD is actually a SSD so I want to install 7 on it, and I'll do it with the Ultimate for obvious reasons.
A friend of mine reported that once he was in a simmila situation, but with Windows XP, and even after he uninstalled the older install he still got the dual boot thing when booting up, even though he couldn't boot the first one anyways, but that'd make him take longer than usual to boot (would miss the whole purpose of installing it on the SSD). I'm guessing they probably have fixed that, but wouldn't hurt to ask. So, would I get the same problem if I did that with 7?
And on my case, should I:
1-Install it on the SSD, then uninstall the older 7 on the original HD
2-First uninstall the older one, then install the new one (that would be a clean install, right?)?
3-something else?
I'm not familiar with booting from CD/DVD so I'd rather do 1 than 2, but if it's better I can read up and manage to do 2.
If you recommend 2, is it faster? Or does it have other benefits from being a clean install? Or is it just because 1 is a bad choice in the first place?
Thanks in advance!
