Sorry if this is sounds like a simple question but this is the first time I've migrated to a new PC.

I have True Image 10 Home installed on my current PC and store backups on an external hard drive.
I have all 'my' data (photos, documents, Outlook pst etc) in partition D and the Windows OS and apps installed in partition C.
I have bought a new PC with Windows 8.1.

Can you confirm that I have got this right?
1) I purchase the True Image 2014 upgrade by downloading it to my new PC and install it there.
2) I create a D partition on my new PC, plug in my external hard drive and can use True Image 2014 to restore the True Image 10 backup of my D partition.

Thanks for your help.

OK, it was such a simple question I've answered it myself :o)

1) Yes, I downloaded the True Image 2014 upgrade to the new PC (Windows 8.1) and the old serial number from True Image 10 was accepted for the upgrade.
2) New PC already had a D partition but of course was much bigger than on my old PC. Used the backup My Data option on the old PC to select the folders containing photos, documents and Outlook PST and just recovered them to the same location on the new PC.

It was all much easier than I thought.
