Can I move my old PC hard drive into my new PC and have that OS? Because on my old PC I had windows 7 and on my new one I use it has windows Vista, so I wanted to see if I could move the hard drive into the new PC and have the OS.
No, you probably can't do that. We need more information about the 2 computers to be sure.
Yeah that's not likely unless they have the same motherboard So your old computer has windows 7 and the new one has vista? Usually it's the reverse. Why don't you just keep the old one?

no, that won't work. system won't boot
OEM software is dedicated to the hardware it was installed for. If through steps you can get it to run, MS will eventually find this out through updates and they will attempt to contact you and attempt to make you pay for a new OS, especially now with Windows 7 getting the free Windows 10 free upgrade. You have to be a little bit crazy to keep you from going insane.
Although it wasn't absolutely necessary we sometimes deleted ENUM when moving a drive with 98 on it. I didn't know that worked with XP too. I'm not sure about the windows 7 the OP has though.
First, copy it
Second, remove the old hard drive, and put on a new hard disk divided into new partition, install the system, do not put something in the old hard drive to restart, with the CD that comes into the PE system, copy the data on the old hard drive to the new partition,
