Lets say Laptop A has a 320Gb Hard drive And Laptop B has a 160Gb Hard drive
I want to move Laptop A's hard drive (with the files in Laptop A's Hard drive) into Laptop B and Laptop B's hard drive into Laptop A
Possible complications of plain switching:
That windows reactivate thingy
Driver problems

Johnny's solution:
Send files into external hard drive
Format both drives
Switch Drives
Reinstall Os and transfer files from external hard drive

Who has a better idea because i want to do the plain switch and try to fix it then actually...move files and format...because its too much work...

This might work just fine, but it depends on drivers, and hardware, if the laptops are made by the same people, it should work a lot better.

Back them up first, then swap them out without formatting to see what happens.

Your Plan was perfect. Or, If you don't have an external HDD, use a Backup Service to back up the files. Apart from that... It's a perfect plan.

Send files into external hard drive
Try each drive in the corresponding laptop (if it works then :D )
Format both drives
Switch Drives
Reinstall Os and transfer files from external hard drive

NimoStar -- If its any consolation, the human brain would still mop the floor with this bot if it wasn't limited by the mechanical interface

NimoStar -- Well. The bot didn't come up with any new strategy. It just has superhuman micro. Hard to beat that. I reckon even the simplest dedicated chess engines are unbeatable for humans now.

Oh_Man shouted: NudeRaider did u watch the entire video? it's not one game. it's currently dominating the ladder at number 1 position. do ur research first!
Oops, caught me there, no I haven't. :( I was imagining how the game went. Sorry for that. Watching it now. brb

NimoStar shouted: They were not "Unprepared" that was their fifth loss in a row against the bot. The other replays are also available
that doesn't mean he was prepared. When humans come around with new strategies it often takes weeks until the pros figure out how to shut it down. Oh_Man that's certainly a way more convincing argument for micro being "too good to beat".
