Halli~SPARTA~ Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Well I tried to load an old driver for a Scanner and after which my system would not get pass the windows start up so after many tries of safe mode and using the 7 disc I thought to load the OS on my second drive. It loaded but wound up on the main drive of which now I have a file called windows.old with ALL the old stuff.............Can I copy my old file files from windows.old to windows without a problem or rename windows.old to windows?

Athlon64~SPARTA~ Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 (edited) Do a windows repair, and yes you can simply drag the windows old to the window new, to the same folders, Games you might have to reload.
