Can I use easy transfer to copy one HARD drive to another?

My old pc is dead - I tried several things, including a new power supply, but finally gave up and bought a new pc Dell, Windows 7.  Can I take my old hard drive, install temporarily in the new pc and use the transfer tool to move my files and folders of old HARD drive to the new?  How?

Why would you when you can manually copy in Explorer

However, you need to take in hand the old data files.

Windows Help will show how

  • How to transfer data from one hard drive to another?

    I don't know how and has been upgraded to a new hard drive...

    Hello

    Well, it may be quite simple, if you install the new OS in the new drive.

    Then you connect the older HARD drive, and you should be able to explore the contents of the HARD drive in windows and copy the data from the old disk to the new. Be careful with what is selected in the BIOS startup disk.

    But depends on the unit you have, because you might end up having several types of questions.

    You can also use any kind of external card, depends on the type of connection of HARD drive you have and for example, if its SATA, you can simply use a SATA to USB adapter.

    Let me know if this helped.

    Thank you

  • Can I use Easy Transfer to transfer my files and settinigs if my old Win 7 PC has a broken video card?

    The video in my old Win 7 machine is broken.  I am particularly interested in the transfer of all of the settings on my new computer Win 8.  The old machine has an external hard drive for backup purposes, but I do not know if this includes the parameters or a few files.

    Can I use easy transfer to access the internal hard drive, even if this computer has no video?  If there is no way to do it, my external backup disk has the parameters that I'm looking for and is accessible with Easy Transfer?  Other options?

    You must be able to see and access Windows Easy Transfer of two computers - they must be running and able to interact with. He has no way to initiate a transfer to a computer that has access to a second computer, without checking on the second computer you establish a transfer.  No work around, no other way to do it.  None. Your backup drives or external work not either except maybe to find a few files that can be moved.

    Despite the title, this video explains how to MOVE pictures, not how to copy.

    There is no way to make copies of the photos using Lightroom, you can move the photos using Lightroom.

    Lightroom will result in no records per day, except when you import photos. If I could make a suggestion, leave your files in the same "mess" they are in now and use the keywords and other metadata to allow you to organize and search.

    You already have another router Apple... as an AirPort Extreme or Airport Express that provides the signal of your wireless network?

    If not, what is the serial number and model of your modem?

    Finally, what operating system is installed on the device you will use to install and configure the time Capsule? If it's a Mac and you're not sure what operating system it uses... click on the Apple icon in the upper left corner of the screen, then click on about this Mac, and post back with number of Version of OS X that you see there.

  • Can I use easy transfer of the hard disk Vista for 64-bit Windows 7 computer?

    My computer laptop 32 bit vista is dead, but the hard drive is intact.  I can access it using a disk blacx disk drive hard usb.  All files seem to be good.  I gave the disc all permissions for changes, etc., so that it is not just to read only.  He sees my new laptop running windows 7 64 bit.  I found files in the record Office of the old drive so that part works.

    I tried to use easy transfer in windows 7.  Installed on the old disk of vista.  But I can't launch the vista easy transfer since this computer is dead.

    Is there a way I can transfer my emails, photos, documents and the itune files?

    Thank you.

    You can use Knoppixhttp://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html with a good ISO as Copier: http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm as well as a blank CD (made on a different computer).  This should give you sufficient access to the Vista system 'dead' (if you can not get in any other way) backup/transfer your important data (like everything else you mentioned) to the one you use (an external hard drive, flash player,...). You will not be able to save your settings or your programs because they require the enforcement system to use easy transfer and regular functions copy and paste will do the trick. If Knoppix doesn't work, try slaving the hard drive to another computer, and then after the data you want to save it.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • can I use easy transfer or transfer Assistant during the transition from XP to Vista / 7?

    XP - XP Easy Transfer

    What I can or I do not use Easy Transfer XP to Vista (or XP to Windows 7?) to transfer files, settings, etc. from a XP Pro (SP3) to another XP Pro PC, or what I need to use the files & Settings Transfer Wizard?  I can't find a definitive answer of 100% with it in correspondence of forum.  What if I transfer via an external hard drive or a shared network folder?

    [I guess there is no XP easy transfer dedicated to XP tool]

    Use the easy transfer program and send data on a cd or external hard drive.

  • Transfer from one hard drive to another

    I transferred all my music from one hard disk to another. I want to be able to play these files from the new location without redownloading everything iTunes game or duplication of entries for the itunes files.  At the moment Itunes shows my entire library with the icon for download next to him. If I drag and drop files from the new location to Itunes, it creates duplicate entries.  I could re - download the entire library through itunes game, but it would be a big waste of time. I wish I could tell itunes to search my library in the new location of the directory. Is this possible?

    For general information, see make a library of portable split . If the library was already divided and you have moved the content from one disk to the other you can fix things by reassigning drive letters. Otherwise if you copy the library files and place inside press it then it should be as if you moved a portable library as a unit and everything should be back in place.

  • Can I use recovery discs on a new hard drive on a dv4?

    I know that the hard drive is toast in my dv4. Can I use the recovery disks that I did when I got the computer to load a new hard drive?

    Yes you can. It is the purpose of having the recovery media.

    Replace your hard drive by another of equal or greater capacity. This does not mean using a superior to 750 GB hard drive, if your had not installed during delivery.
