I need Hard drive installation advise.

by michael.tocci . Updated 18 years, 3 months ago

I am installing a new 500GB SATA drive into my computer which will replace a 60GB EIDE hard drive. I need advise on how to carry out this operation concerning moving the data and OS over to the new hard drive.
I am a student and the school has a software special with Microsoft so that I can upgrade to Vista, maybe I install the new hard drive as D:, install Vista to the drive, copy all the programs and files over to D: and then pull the old hard drive out, and rename D: to C:. Can I do that?
If you could point me to any instructions I know I can carry them out.
