Here is my issue(s): my recent drive failed me; BIOHD-2 issue otherwise known as BOOT DISK FAILURE; it was a Seagate Barracuda 500GB 7200rpm hard drive. I installed a new one same one actually i got at i best buy. I never made any recovery disks; i know stupid. Now my question is can i use the recovery disks from my laptop on my desktop. Both my desktop and laptop are HP they only vary in OS(vista, Win 7 respectivley).
Now can anyone give me specific details on how to take it from there. Is it just a matter of powering it on and sliding the disks in which will then act accordingly and ta-dah all done.
DESKTOP SPECS:
CPU: 1.80GHz AMD Phenom 9150e quadcore
MEMORY: 4gb Samsund SDRAM
HARD DRIVE: formerly 500GB seagate Barracuda, same replacement
POWER SUPPLY: 300 Watts
VIDEO CARD: Radeon HD 4350
LAPTOP SPECS:
CPU: Core i3, 2.13 GHz
MEMORY: 4gb
HARD DRIVE: 500gb
VIDEO CARD: Intel HD 1gb
