Dissimilar hardware: How do you get drivers off of an HP Windows-7 Pro installation CD?
I want to use Acronis 18 to migrate from a Gateway Profile 6.5 AIO to an HP 8000.
The Gateway runs under Windows-7 Pro
The HP will run under Windows-7 Pro.
Acronis 18 says to prepare and have the Drivers for the destination PC available.
Great!
They must be on the HP Windows-7 Pro installation CD.
If they are, will Acronis 18 just ask me to insert the CD and then proceed to find what it needs?
If not, in preparation, how do I identify them on the HP Windows-7 Pro installation CD?
If I install HP Windows-7 Pro on the 8000 first, will Acronis 18 just restore without needing drivers?
Also
Can / will the Cloning Application run under Windows-7 while the PC is running 'other' Applications?
Example:
I am cloning our POS Server which runs under Windows-7.
Can we continue to use the POS Server while the cloning process is also running?
OR
Must the clone be run under Windows while everything else is shut down??

I now want to buy Acronis 2018.
When I buy it, I'd assume that it downloads onto my Gateway.
Once it's there and I run the Backup, how do I get it to the HP?

Mike,
You will need to create Recovery Media and Universal Restore Media to perform the tasks. I am attaching the user guide and the EULA here for your convenience. You will need to give the user guide a good read through to get an understanding of the processes involved. I would recommend that you do that prior to purchase.
If you have additional questions you can post them here in the Forum and another user or MVP will respond.
EDIT: Adding more tutorials -
Disk restore with Recovery Media
