Hello forum :)
I currently am running Windows 7/64 on a 320G HDD (along with my files and apps) with another 500G HDD which holds my games and a 1TB HDD which holds my movies. Yesterday, I purchased a 32G SSD and I will be reinstalling Win 7/64 on this drive. What I would like to know is:
How do I work it so the new OS installation can use all of the files on the original OS HDD, which I want to still use for my apps and personal files but also all of the pertinent files that Win 7 needs, so I save HD space (as it's only 32G), Basically, could someone smarter than me instruct as to how to go about this the easiest way? Also, how do I know which files to delete from the original drive so there are no conflicts. Or, do I maybe have to just copy all of the files I want to save, format the original HD and just start over and copy the new Win 7/64 pertinent files over then (and WHICH ones are they? maybe a link that shows how to do this?). I think you guys know what I'm doing, lol. Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it.
Great forum BTW;)
