  1. install existing ssd with windows and programs etc in a brand new computer


    I have a SSD with an upgraded version of Windows 10 on it. Works fine so that's not the issue. To be clear, once I had an original Windows 7 with registration code, but when Microsoft came up with Windows 10, I got the possibility to update my Windows 7 to Windows 10. So I did and everything worked and still works fine. On the other hand I do not have a registration code for the Windows 10 version. Now I want to install my SSD with Windows 10 and programs etc in a brand new computer. Just like that. Take it out of my old comp and install it into my new one. Will it work with an upgraded Windows 10 version without a real registration / license number.

    :)

    Brand new SSD help.

    I mean, if you have the space for non-Steam games then you can go ahead and install them on the SSD if you want. I was just suggesting that you shouldn't bother with Steam and junction points on the SSD. Skyrim doesn't really have terrible loading times on an HDD, at least on my 2TB Seagate 5900RPM drive. Getting Windows off the drive and onto the SSD seemed to help a bit if I remember correctly. Just be warned that a base Windows install and programs will eat nearly half of your 120GB SSD right off the bat.
