Windows 10: Restoring Windows10

Hi,
I'm new here and I hope I have this question in the correct area. First off. I have 2 windows 10 in my house. one is almost 4 yrs old and the other is a week old. The newer win10 had some serious issues and Windows10 itself need to be reinstalled. We recently had a blizzard that knocked the power out while both computers were on. the new one got fried and the old one survived. The new one seems to turn on ok but is stuck in some kind of loop while trying to start windows. The sad part the files to it didn't get saved before the disaster stuck.
The new windows10 is almost the same kind of computer as the older one except it has 8gigs of memory. The older HP has only 6 gigs of memory but it also has it's restore files.

My question is could I use the restore files from the older HP to restore the new HP or is there a problem since one is 6gig's of memory and the other is 8gigs?

The older one is a 550-153W HP windows10 with 1k gigs hard drive and 6gigs memory
The new one is a 590-p0053W HP windows10 with 1k hard drive and 8gigs memory

Restoring Windows 10 Image using Macrium Reflect


In addition to the above. Here's my suggestion in step by step.
I assume you have Macrium Installed in your current HD and already made a backup copy.

1. Connect your new HD via USB port and boot up.
2. Run Macrium, click on Restore tab then select the Backup Image that you made to restore
3. click on "select a different target disk" then select your new HD as destination
   
   
   
4. Proceed to restore then Shutdown and disconnect the old HD and replace with the new HD
5. Boot up with your new HD.

 

System Restore & Backup For Windows10

What I mean is that in Windows7 there is a facility for auto-backup at certain dates (especially when Windows performs an update) from where one can restore the system to an earlier and trouble free state.

I noticed that there is no such auto system in Windows10.

Thank you.
