I put all three harddrives in the tower, set the old one to be boot. Windows wont start, tried system resotore and nada. I had seven and took the free upgrade to ten.

So now, I'm just going to say "frick it" start over with a fresh 10 install on the ssd, then move the files I want from the old drive and reinstall the exe's I want.

Basically I'm just going to do it the hard way.

Probably for the best. It's usually not a good idea to clone a failing drive (which may have some corrupted data).
