With the new Windows 10 coming out soon as a free upgrade, I'd like to know if and how I can install the upgrade on a new HDD. I assume the files needed for Windows 10 are only for upgrading an installed copy of Windows 7 or 8 and not a standalone installer to use on an empty hard drive. Or is this assumption wrong?
I have some issues booting (an older non-working version appears in the list of OS's to choose from) and I'd like to replace my current SSD, which is too small, with a new larger capacity one, while keeping my other drives intact. The old SSD will then be removed.
If more information is needed, please let me know.

Wait a minute. Will those .ISOs work for OEM licenses? – RogUE – 2016-07-19T15:40:36.183
@RogUE - Of course they will. Generic Windows 7 .ISOs, which can also be downloaded at the TestBench website, will work with OEM copies of Windows 7 despite the incorrect information reported saying that generic Windows 7 .ISOs don't work with OEM Windows 7 licences.. Granted you have to do something to a configuration file that exists within the .ISO in that case though. – Ramhound – 2016-07-19T15:41:00.463
