nee, it's not that hard.

Y'sure? 'Cause it might be a tad harder than you think.

Good luck! See you soon, I hope. And I'd find installing a new hard drive difficult, myself.

Steps to install a new hard drive:

1. Connect the hard drive to the main board and the power source. There are only two cables and it's imposible to put them wrong becouse of their shape but it's posible to forget to connect them, in that case it's easy to spot the problem.
2. Install windows, insert cd, next, next, next, next, next and you are finished. If you already had the SO installed in another hard drive jump to the step 3.
3. ????
4. Profit!

Piece of cake.

okay now I am on the long and bothersome part of re-installing all my drivers and stuff and setting everything the way I like it, so far so good though, only one error when updating my video driver

Thankfully I always save any vital setup files I might need for later so it is making things fairly easy, still have a few hours work ahead of me... going to eat some curry couscous in the meantime...

heh don't think this was post worthy but w/e.... hd installation isn't the most difficult thing unless it's the os hd your changing but even then with some of the software out there it's easy to just clone it onto the new drive.

Unless you're using one of the new versions of Windows (XP or Vista), which assume that if the HD has changed, you're trying to pirate it and force you to go through activation again.

Yeah, it's true. With Vista Micro$oft has become really paranoid.

Luckily the underground comunity has released lots of patches to make Micro$oft even more paranoid.

:3 Downloading and installing a functional copy of Vista is just a piece of cake, it has even keygen and cracks that block the nasty things about Vista.
