I bought a used Dell Laptop nearly two years ago, and ever since I got it the hard drive has been making clicking noises and the computer has been freezing quite a bit.
So I've decided to shell out some money to purchase a new hard drive, but had a question. When I purchased the computer, it came with Windows 7 Enterprise, but did not come with any Windows 7 recovery disk.
So I'm wondering, if I put a new hard drive in, will I need to purchase another copy of Windows 7? Or would I be able to make a system restore on my laptop which would transfer Windows 7 to the new hard drive?
Thanks
