I need a little help with my 'new' PC build. Iv got all new parts to build new PC except for my GPU and 2 nvme drives (1 boot drive / 1 storage drive) as ill reuse them in the new PC.

My issue is: I want to use my current boot drive as the boot drive on the new system, but i want to wipe it clean to perform a new install of windows 11 for the new PC as if it were a fresh new drive.

I just cant figure out out how to able to do this! I'm going to sell all the old parts from my old PC parts (Motherboard/CPU/PSU/ too so i need to leave the PC in a state which allows me to sell the parts individually :)
Any help would be greatly appreciated :)
 
You need to install Windows 11 on a USB stick, then once your new PC is assembled, there will be an option to wipe the drive when you install Windows 11 off the stick.

At least, that's how it used to work. I haven't had to install for a few years.
