Back again everybody. I posted earlier about how my laptop wen out on me and I was trying to salvage information. Turns out the motherboard was bad, so I went and removed the hard drive and got a SATA wire connection. And after plugging in and removing files I wanted, I was curious now if I could use the hard drive, considering it has the OS that I want, and set my current computer to boot from that hard drive.
Is this something that is viable?
I have also wondered about the possibility of partitioning my current drive so that I could copy my old drive in it's entirety onto my current laptop and then have the option to boot from 2 OS's. Is this something that can be accomplished, and if so; is there anyone out there that might be able to steer me in the right direction?
