I hope this makes sense......
the system will hang on boot. the OS is not transplatable. You COULD try going into add/remove programs, uninstall EVERY driver then go into add/remove hardware and remove EVERY possible piece of hardware all before pulling the drive out but you are better off going with a fresh install.
