    installing windows 7 on new hd


    ok so im trying to install AIO windows 7 onto a new hard drive i bought 1tb wd black. i have an emachine t 5224. anyways so i go to install it and it needs drivers. i found the drivers on the emachine website but they wont work cause they r for. xp,vista,w2000,w2003. SO i guess what im asking is where could i find drivers that would help me install w7. thanks again first time posting so let me know if you need more info.

    What is "AIO Windows 7" == Have you started to install and ran across problems? When I installed my Win 7, all the drivers were on the Win 7 disk. If you haven't tried to install yet, give it a go and then find out what you are missing. == One other thing, if you have not ran the Windows Upgrade Advisor http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/downl...ils.aspx?id=20 you should do so before the install. This tells you what is missing from your PC that enables Win 7 to run.

    Since you have an old computer, you need to find out if you have the correct RAM, Video Card, etc to run Windows 7. Put your old HD in and download the Windows Advisor in my link and make sure that you have the proper hardware. == You do know that when you install Win 7, you have to put in a Product Key to activate it. I am guessing your friend did not give you that. == A note to the other guys here at Seven Forums. Have you ever heard of "All in One Windows 7"?
