More information please.
What OS on the old one and the new one?
What version of True Image do you have?

You may not restore OS and installed programs from the old system to the new one. If you did, you would wipe out Win 8.1 and end up with the old Win 7.

You may restore your user files. That can be done with the standard True Image, or in fact many file-based backup tools.

But if I restore and end up with old win 7. All programs will work fine? or there will be troubles with the new hardware?

You have to make sure you have the proper drivers if you do this.

As Thomas says, Win 7 would likely require many different drivers than Win 8.1, so you'd need to assemble those.
