Old HDD

[Daleborn]

Im currently trying to fix a pre built all in one desktop my family has had for a while, and so i have cleaned all the fans, put a new and better quality thermal past on the cpu (for better temps and all that) replaced the ram since it only had 4gb, and now i want to wipe the hard drive and install windows 10 on it, but i dont know the model of the mother board, so i cant download the drivers if i do wipe it(if i need any). so my question is basically would it be safe for me to take the hdd out of the pre built, wipe it, puut it back into the pre built, install windows 10 onto it, and just use the comp after that.

 

Thanks in advance!

yeah, I think windows update will take care of all the drivers and if not, just go to device manager > device properties > details > device ID and search the longest string in google. or you can simply back the data up if you have space on another HDD
