System/Windows files scattered around 2 drives on windows 7.
So, I have 2 HDDs. One of them is an old one that i wanted to remove from the start after grabbing the files onto the new one but then it got forgotten etc..
One another day my PC started having HDD problems so i tested both of the drives and the old one didn't work at all pretty much. I thought what the hell, gonna disconnect it from the pc.
After removing the drive i turned on my PC and it said that some kind of system files or such are missing. I went like Woooo wait a minute, i only ever installed my OS on the one main drive!
Then i connected the drive up again and the PC turned on once again. I went to see the computer management > disk management tab and there i saw it, my windows had system reserved space on the "Disk 1", the old drive but it all boots off the "Disk 0", the new drive.
So i ask if there is any ways i can get the system files off the old drive to the new drive without a need to reinstall windows completly.
Also i wonder why my windows has done such a thing.
