HARDDRIVES DO NOT COME WITH PASSWORDS YOU HAVE TO SET YOUR OWN.GO TO THE CONTROL PANEL AND CLICK ON PASSWORDS. A new hard drive is empty. It has nothing on it. When you install the operating system, you're starting over from scratch. You'll have to enter your passwords the same way you did before, and tell Windows to remember them. Just like you'll have to install any other software that you want on the machine. You're starting over again from scratch.
