As a suggestion, especially when installing Windows 7 on a new computer, or for the first time, don't enter your key or activate. You get 30 days to make sure everything is running smoothly before burning one of your activations.

I've done this several times and i have the old drive intact to work of of. Will be using files & setting transfer. Just testing the procedure to make sure i can recommend the correct steps when the inflow starts

I don't even bother with the Files & Settings transfer. To me, it's quicker to just copy off what I need, and replace it on the new drive. | | My System Specs | | OS Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1
