New systems have UEFI BIOS and looking for drives formatted GPT. The old drive you have is probably formatted NTFS. The new hardware is not backward compatible with Win 8.1.

Hi I had converted my old hard drive from MGR to GPT format. Still I can't able to access that hard drive and boot that windows 8.1. How can change booting device order in Bio Settings.
