  1. I want to have two copies of windows on two different drives but it keeps telling me...


    So I built my computer last year. It is an i9 alder lake processor with Z690 motherboard. I purchased a copy of windows 10 and put on my pc that has been recently upgraded to Windows11. I purchased another copy of 11 to put on a different disk drive so I can have both OS systems on my pc but when I go to install my new copy of 11 it tells me my PC is not compatible with Windows 11. I have been running Windows 11 on this PC so I dont know why it wont install. I want to have windows 11 on one drive and reinstall my old 10 on another drive.

    :)

    how to copy files from the CD to the Computer drive

    Hi Hankriegler,

    I would suggest you to follow the steps below:


    • Press Windows key + X.

    • Click file explorer from the list.

    • Select the CD/DVD drive and hit Enter.

    • Select the files you want to copy from the CD/DVD, then select the drive where you want to paste or save.
    I hope the information is helpful.

    Thank you.

    Replacing old hard drive, need way to copy Windows installation across

    Hey Guys,
    What would be the best way of copying/imaging the entire contents of an old system drive over to a replacement hard disk for the same machine? I need to copy the Windows installations and all other data to the new drive, and then format the old drive to use as a backup.

    Any suggestions? *Smile I want to have two copies of windows on two different drives but it keeps telling me... :)
