See Windows Reinstallation Guide/.A Clean Install of Windows 7:

Most things will work natively with Windows 7 however you may wish to use these drivers for best results:

I have my other HDD backed up to a WD external HDD,now just have to get straight in my head how to transfer all of what i can to new HDD,I just have to get procedure thought out before starting it.
The original HDD is about 8yrs old so it may not last much longer.
