  1. Re-install SSD Drive with activat4ed Windows 11 plus all data on new computer


    My windows 11 mini computer has completely died and no longer usable. However I have been able to remove the SSD card with all the data intact. I want to insert it in to a new computer so I can continue with my registered copy of Windows 11 plus all the programs and data should be usable.. The mini computer was registered under my Microsoft account *** Email address is removed for privacy *** The computer I want to install the SSD drive in was active at one time and is still registered under my Microsoft account *** Email address is removed for privacy ***. I am trying to avoid a complete new install of all my programs and data. I am told it

  3. Windows 11 clean install from HDD to SSD

    Hi, Joseph. I'm Robinson, and I’m happy to help you today.

    "First, can I reuse my product key automatically or is there some process I have to go through to deactivate my product key to then reactivate it when I reinstall it?"

    -Yes, you can use the same product key. Once you sign in on Windows using your Microsoft account, your Windows will be activated automatically.

    "Second, will it prompt me to install it to my SSD instead of the original HDD?"

    -During the Windows installation will be shown a list of all drives attached to your computer, you will need to identify which one is the SSD and install Windows on it.

    The easiest way is to disconnect all drives from your motherboard and let only the SSD where you want to install Windows connected. Once you finished the Windows installation reconnect the other drives

    "Third, when I clean install Windows 11 to the SSD will the original HDD be completely wiped clean or will the original Windows 11 instillation be on it?"

    -If you don't delete the partitions from the HDD during the Windows installation all the data in the HDD will keep intact.

    If you keep only your new SSD connected to your computer during the Windows installation or do not delete the partitions during the Windows installation, you will need to use Disk Management to wipe your HDD.

    "Finally, what are the step by steps to actually clean install Windows 11"

    -The easiest procedure is:

    Step 1: Disconnect all drives from your motherboard. Keep connected to your motherboard only the new SSD where you want to install Windows.

    Step 2: Perform a clean installation of Windows on the SSD. You can see how to do it at this link.

    https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/for...

    Note: Instead of using the original Windows 11 install USB which has an outdated version of Windows, it is recommended to create a new Windows 11 install USB with the latest version of Windows. You can do it with the Media Creation Tool from this link.

    https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/win...

    Step 3: Once you finished with the Windows installation, reconnect the old HDD to your computer and wipe with the Disk Management.

    1-Right-click on Start then click Disk Management

    2-Right-click on the partition of the HDD and select "Delete volume". Delete all partitions from the HDD

    3-Right-click an unallocated region on your HDD, and then select "New Simple Volume" and follow the instructions

    I hope this information helps. If you have any questions, please let me know and I'll be glad to assist you further.

  4. Re-install SSD Drive with activat4ed Windows 11 plus all data on new computer

    Unable to boot new SSD "Inaccessible Boot Device" error

    I recently upgraded my HP Laptop with a Crucial P5 Plus 500GB PCI 4.0 NVMe SSD from a 250GB SATA M.2. The cloning appears to have been successful ( I have an SSD enclosure and can access all the old data files in the new SSD when I run it as an external drive from another computer). The problem is that when installed , the new drive just won't boot and I get a "Inaccessible Boot Device" error. Not being sure if it was a HDW compatibility issue I tried and was able to successfully install and run Windows 11 in a separate volume on the new cloned Drive (which originally also has Windows 11 ) . Being a Newbie, is it possible to copy the "Boot files and/or drivers" to the new windows from the old windows on the same drive? I have a lot of programs and would prefer not to have to uninstall and reinstall. Any suggestions are most appreciated.
