i have a windows 10 key that isnt the same as the generic key so do i have to use the windows 10 iso and do a fresh intall onto my ssd. id like to copy the hard drive to my ssd. its a 320 hdd so i know it will fit.

Its best to do a clean install on your ssd. I am not even sure if you can even transfer windows, but if you can it would probably be super slow. Just clean install it

You could don an acronis backup, but just do a fresh install. That way you wont forget to turn off defraging.

No seriuosly I also think a clean reinstall is the way to go. Also did you not have yout other OS on the SSD when getting WX?
