Yes, you can boot your new PC using the HDD from your old desktop running Windows 7. Just connect the drive and follow the appropriate setup steps.

Verify the drive on a different PC first, then assess its health and speed. Ensure it's in good shape and offers reasonable performance compared to standard HDDs. If not, begin anew.

Begin fresh or use an existing setup, provided you have the necessary cables and compatible BIOS configuration.

Usually it doesn't function properly, but sometimes you can try installing the chipset drivers before replacing the board. However, this often causes complications, so a fresh installation is recommended.
