What is the best way to reload from an external hard drive?
Options
I got the blue screen of death, my local microcenter downloaded everything to an external drive, completely wiped my laptop drive. They reloaded the latest version of Windows, handed me back my computer and the external hard drive. The last time I downloaded an external hard drive into windows it did not go well. I ended up with a whole new folder and another layer between me and my files. What is the best way to reload from an external hard drive onto my Lenovo Thinkpad with a intell Core i7.
