Solved Is it possible to setup a hard disk to another computer?

[demonguy]

I have a hard disk which already have windows installed, and now I want to setup this hard disk to my new computer, and of course I dont want to reinstall my OS.

I know that if I boot from this hard disk ,windows may not correctly boot because of drivers mismatch.so I just want to know is there anyway to deal with it without reinstall windows?

Put the hard drive back into the old computer and boot it up.

Run in am elevated cmd the following commands...

pushd C:\Windows\System32\SysPrep
sysprep.exe /generalize

Wait for it to finish.

Move disk to new machine.

Boot.

Activate Windows with your new CD-KEY that you bought with the new machine.
