I just built a new computer with an i5 4670k processor. I have windows 7 on a ssd in an older PC that has a quad core2 q8000 processor. When I put the ssd into the new PC it boots up into the bios fine but when I try to start windows it flashes a blue screen for a second and then shuts off. Also when I try to install the new drivers onto the sdd from the old PC it says I don't have the hardware to install them. What do I need todo to get this to start properly?

Yeah, you need to install the OS on the machine you are using. The OS will become unstable if it is booted from a system with different hardware specs from the original system.

 

Take the SSD and put it in the new system. Install the OS and it will work fine

Ok thank you. I'm at college and my install disk is at home. Is there a way to install it without the DVD

I would have said to download a Windows ISO since there used to be safe official microsoft download links but they removed all of them today.
