Hello,
I WANT TO DO A CLEAN INSTALL of WIN7. I now have WIN XP PRO.
I have an OEM version of Windows7 Pro. I presently have Windows XP Home and want to format two of my three HDDS. I’m changing the boot drive from my 74GB RAPTOR to my 500GB Blue caviar, so after moving everything from my500GB storage to my new 2TB Caviar green HDD, I’m ready to format both the first two drives and install win7.
Can I format these drives first, go in the BIOS change to boot sequence from Raptor Boot Drive to the DVD/Rom to boot the WIN7 from, or should I format while installing Win7?
Is it absolutely necessary to unplug the other two drives, while formatting and installing the WIN7 O.S.? People tell me that there is a chance of the OS installing sometimes on the other drives.
Also, if I want to change the now boot drive Local disk letter (C) to my storage drive (G) and the other two drives letters can I do this in manage disks, anytime?
Thx
