You can boot from the HDD and start Windows directly. Make sure the installation media is properly formatted and the drive is recognized correctly.

You can connect your existing Windows 10 drive and it should function properly. Yes, if your previous drive uses Windows 10, it probably includes the necessary drivers for Windows Update and downloading new audio/video drivers. If this doesn’t work, you’ll need a USB containing Windows 10 installation media. You can find an ISO file at https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software...ndows10ISO. They also offer a tool to generate a bootable USB, but using Rufus (search it online) will let you create one too. Either method is viable, just a different approach.

You can start from your hard drive, but what does that mean?

Ensure your Windows 10 drive is connected to another PC and powered on without pressing the key. The system should boot as expected, likely matching the old setup. If reformatting is necessary, the same key will still function. Linking your key to your Microsoft account allows you to update it online when hardware changes occur, avoiding issues from unexpected validation steps.

Great to hear you're trying, but connecting the two cables and turning on the computer is quite challenging. Only specialists seem to manage that. Just attempt it first—it's actually simple. If issues arise, check the search function; it's confirmed safe with no viruses.

Let’s look at the situation. My photo won’t turn on, everything seems connected, and I think the PSU might be faulty—possibly because I touched a CPU pin by accident. I’m not sure what to check next.
