Nothing in the procedure will change by simply replacing the HD

That assumption might not be correct. The prior o/s that was upgraded
from to Win10 already had drivers for all applications and devices.
Clean installing on an older era (e.g. original Vista) device may not be
as streamlined as the upgrade route.




But the OP has already demonstrated the ability to install the OS.


Unlike in the days of Win98, Microsoft is now pretty good with the
"search for the drivers on-line" feature...and only rarely do I anymore
have to go to the mfg for drivers.

Yes, much better on including and using Windows Update for drivers,
unfortunately for older devices (of which a Vista device could be)
neither Win10 or the manufacturer may have drivers, thus some may still
be needed.






Agreed.

Took me quite a while to chase down one specific driver
