Hi everyone, I'm new, sorry my first post is a question before you've got to know me.
My Windows 7 system computer died and I got a new Windows 7 system computer, I saved the 250GB hard drive and it's in a caddy and connected through The USB. I cannot find or access my old programs, i have tons of stuff in itunes but don't know how to import them and loads of photos I cannot find. I am at my wits end. Am I able to recover my microsoft word/excell etc I've tried but don't know where it is.
Many thanks for reading hope someone can help.
Regards, Peter
 
Yes! It is the H drive but it has nearly 250GB on and it's so confusing, I can't find anything I want.
I especially want Microsoft office and all my itunes songs/tv programmes/etc

Cheers
 
Yes but there are so many for example under the itunes folder and I've tried as many as I can but cannot find the ones to access my old itunes library and same with microsoft office, so many files and folders but cannot find the main program.
 
For applications like Office you'll need to reinstall them from the original media - the installation process adds configuration information to the system registry such that it's not possible to use an installation from a different copy of Windows like you're trying to do.

Documents and the like are much easier to deal with, they can simply be copied from one disk to the other. You should be able to deal with iTunes in the same way but I've not done it myself so don't want to comment too much.
