to many factors that come into play when you move from one computer to the next. Each system tells it to look for a specific partition, like HP uses about 20G of space for tools that HP needs / uses. Hardware isn't compatible with certain sfotware that may be on your HD, windows is expecting to find the computer name to be this, and it's that, same with other stuff.. it's really just not doable, not when you go from note book to note book.
