Using old HDD with copy of Windows 7 in new PC
I am planning a build for a new pc and budgeting heavily. I was wondering whether it is viable/safe to put my HDD from my old PC into a totally new pc. Would it just run normally, or is there something i should do, say to get Windows to recognise the new hardware? Or would it just not work?
I would wipe the HDD and reinstall Windows, but I did not recieve the Windows Install disk with my store-bought pc and i don't feel like buying another copy of Win 7.
I'm open to suggestions.
