if you move everything from the dell case to the new case it will all work. but aslong as your not changing the motherboard you wont need to buy a new version of windows, btw most harddrives are universal anymore they will fix in any caseWill a ATA hard drive fit in an atx case?
it standard dear 3.5inch fit on all atx case
It will. ATA is the data transfer method, while ATX is the standard form factor. With your hard drive, you'd be more worried about the size, which is most likely 3.5'; (that will fit in almost any case).
