Hello I just bought a new computer without a hard drive and tried to move the
hard drive from my old one to the new one and it won't boot up it gets to the
safe mode or noermal boot screen then I select normal or safe mode and it
starts to load and thats as far as it gets. It locks up on a blank screen.
can I use my old drive. thanks for any help
