Changing default hard drive

[Guest]

My system boots up using the C drive. I would prefer it boot up using the F
drive, whic his an older hard drive that I installed after buying the
computer. (I have both hard drives) How can I make this change?

Thank you!

With the least future trouble?

Backup all your data, swap the hardware appropriately (jumpers, etc) and
partition/format/install Windows and everything onto the new configuration.

Another option would be external hard drive and imaging software.

Is there a way to do this with software rather than moving hardware? The F
drive has my old programs, etcd, and I would rather make that data my
default. I don't want to try to reinstall every program painstakingly.
