Windows 10 can swallow total hardware change?
I have avoided most versions of Windows. I recall with older versions,
if you took a Windows hard drive and plugged it in to a different PC, it would faff about detecting new hardware, and then either BSOD or complain too much hardware had changed, so require re-activation. Now I found a PC in a dumpster that wouldn't boot. It had an SSD, so I plugged that in to an old PC ... and it displayed something about setting up 25% then 75% then starts up (the previous user had not required a password). Well, strike me down with a feather. The junk PC was a Haswell, and test mule a Nehalem. Probably nothing was the same. It was as if I had swapped a linux installation disk. |
