Hi i bought a new hard drive as i needed to replace a old one as it was basically on a limb so i thought to use it to back up files, so installing the operating system onto the new drive and booting up it works perfect those ive come into a problem when taking out the old hard drive the system wont boot and ive made sure it is booting to the new drive

any suggestion would be greatly appreciated
 
As long as there isn't anything you need on the new drive that you want to keep, the following is what I would start with.

Take out the old drive (I would just unplug both cables and leave it in the PC) reformat and reinstall Windows on the new drive.
