    Can anyone tell me how to check for when an OS was installed on a Hard Drive.

    I have the hard drive in another pc connected to a USB to SATA/IDE cable.

    Is there a timestamp put on the disk?

    Thanks in advance.

    There may be an easier way, but if you allow all operating system files to be viewed, then you could look at when a system file was created (eg config.sys). Mine says 6th February 2008, which is when I last installed Windows.
