My sister had an old PC that died recently that was running windows 7. She has an external HD, but for some reason, has never use it to create a backup. So I pull the HD from the old windows 7 PC and put it in an enclosure, and we bought a new Windows 8 PC. The problem is, since the old HD is just in the enclosure but isn't backed up, I can't figure out how to migrate all her old programs and settings from the old HD to the new computer. Is there a way to backup the old HD so I can run the automatic set up in windows 8?
