New system is Ryzen 7 7800X3D, GIGABYTE B650 AORUS ELITE AX AM5, AMD 7900XT, and DDR5 memory. Did the prework in your tutorial, moved my boot drive t my new system and booted right up. Glad you warned about it having you set up another system ID or I would have panicked. Restarted and logged into my old system ID and everything was just as I left it. I had AOMEI Backupper backup with universal restore as plan B, but didn't have to use it. THANKS!!

Hi. Thanks for this Video. Watched it a few times and then took the leap and used sysprep to move my SSD 1TB into a newer laptop with a larger SSD. Windows did ask me to create a new user account but didn't ask me for my Key. After a re-boot I could log in with my original user account and my desktop looked identicle. Task Bar Icons were missing but that's no biggie! I did install DriverMax which identified 20 required/updated drivers for the hardware in my newer Laptop. Well worth the 30 day sub of £8 just to get the job done. I'm going to look for a tool to uninstall the remaining redundant drivers I missed pre-sysprep. Thanks for sharing your experiences and making mine a lot easier. Respect.

@danteflame873 жыл бұрын
Tutorial is incorrect, sysprep and OutOfBoxExperience are purely for telling your computer you want to run the windows first time start up wizard again, the way windows would behave if it was fresh "out of the box", it has nothing to do with prepping the hard drive to be removed from your current PC. All you have to do is delete any drivers that might cause conflicts like he did in this tut and make sure your windows activation is tied to your Microsoft account (as opposed to the hardware) so the activation will transfer with the hard drive and you don't have to do the dance of deactivating on one machine then activating on the other or worse yet having to enter your activation key. Windows 10 does a lot of the rest of the work for you automatically.

Sysprep doesn't bring over your user info because it was created for cloning larger deployments back when the internet was much slower and/or creating preconfigured resale units. At least that is what we had used it for... I'm surprised activation carries over without an enterprise license. Very cool.

Good advice.. You should always update your bios regularly, be it on a new build or existing one 👌

@Luca Balaj I did not get it from the cmd, but I got it with a software called SoftKey Revealer (scans my pc). You think the key is legit? (BTW thx for helping a noob:)

I currently have my windows 10 and everything else installed on a HDD. I am changing out my CPU and motherboard, I want to use this oppertunity to use a SSD as the bootdrive. However, I'd like to keep all my other stuff on my current HDD and reuse the HDD. Does anybody know if that is at all posible?

thats hard. from what i understand, you could just clone your current HDD (with win and everything) on this SSD and use this one, that's pretty easy (there are free programs for that, i used "minitool shadowmaker"). if that's done, you have two hard drives with the exact same information. why keeping it on HDD then? you now have EVERYTHING on a SSD, preferably with a high amount of storage. so, if you want things separated, just keep all programs on the SSD. delete everything on the old HDD and you can use this one for Pictures, maybe games, samples, movies etc. (everything that doesn't really profit from an SSD)

Great video thank you for sharing. If you have data on another drive on your pc and if you still have the drive just add it with the same name and drive letter and it will recognize it. If the music is calling for a drive you had on your old pc could you not add the drive again with the same drive letter and name? It should work I think.
