Thank you everyone for the thread. I had read through and couldn't find too much help for my problem.
2 weeks ago my mother board fried and I had to get a new one ASAP. Originally I had a Gigabyte Z77 1155 chipset mobo. I was going to replace it but the specific mobo I had was so much more expensive than when I bought it and it was also not able to be delivered in time.
I decided to upgrade to a Gigabyte Z97X-UD7-TH with a processor to go with it. I rebuilt the system and got it moving.
Before my last mobo shorted out, I was running ML 10.8.5. I am currently using that SSD from my main machine to type this message from my macbook pro. I currently have no way of backing up my HDD.
I have a few simple (and probably stupid) questions. In the past, when I installed an OS over my previous OS it replaced all of the data with the new OS. All of my programs and such were gone. I just want to confirm that if I install Yosemite over ML, my applications and data will still be present in the next boot.
I had already removed the files that were suggested in the guide. I also edited org.chameleon.Boot.plist as said in the guide. I am about to follow the next steps on my macbook pro because when I boot this SSD on my hack, I can't access internet.
If anyone has any help or suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated. I urgently need this computer up and running so I can render some animations that I made to projection map this black tie charity event this weekend. Thank you so much in advance.

PS - sorry about the offensive name on here.. it is a band name
