My first new PC changeover.Please help with W7 64bit OEM install
Hello,
This is my first post. I recently had a new PC built by a reputable computer business Have included the new specs for my new build when I signed up to this forum. I printed off 2 tuts. How to do a clean install with Windows 7 and How to clean reinstall a factory OEM Windows 7. I am confused to which tut to use. I bought the Windows 7 64bit Home Edition (Intended for distribution with a new PC) Includes service pack 1. Key no. sticker has been put on computer case.
I want to keep this old working computer in action till I know the new PC is up and running properly before I totally pull the plug on this old working PC. When I setup my new PC can I just plugin the current wireless mouse and corded keyboard from this old working PC to do the Windows 7 OS install ? I have 2 external HD's connected to the old working PC, (1x2TB +1X500GB) and have backed up most stuff on these.Can I transfer my files over down the track? What about the "C" drive. Is their anything important that needs to be transferred to the new PC. This is very new to me. Had the new build here for 2 weeks now and a guy put me onto this forum from another forum because he said this is the forum wheir I can find help.
