    Hey guys, my PC psu blew not too long ago so i cant use it anymore until i replace the PSU.

    So.. Is it possible to move the HDD from the broke PC into my parents PC so that my parents PC would now have 2 HDD's in it? Parents pc already has a HDD in it obv but just wondering would everything go down smoothly if i did transfer it?

    Both HDD's have Windows 7 Home Premium 32bit installed on them.

    Thanks.

    Unless it's the exact same PC, it won't work well if you boot from your hard drive.
    What you could do is use your parents hard drive for booting and access the files on your drive.
