Your post is not clear. There are FOUR pictures involved in the startup process.
The FIRST picture is the BIOS logo which is nearly impossible to change.
The SECOND picture is the Windows bootup screen. Some users has hacked the background pictures (don’t ask me how).
The THIRD picture is the Windows logon screen background. Information about how to change it is given HERE.
The FOURTH picture is your desktop. See Post #1 above for information how to change it.
Now please tell us which of the FOUR pictures are you asking about?

You say I note…
This has always been a noisy drive. Also, now the led just blinks intermittently.
How noisey, and what type if noise…; clicks, ticking, groans etc…?
Any of those could/would suggest a drive is possibly faulty – on it’s way out; even if like that from the start. Most drives these days are pretty quiet overall. Although sometimes a usb-case/housing can act as sound amplifier to a modest degree… and as a result a drive sound a little noisier than it might otherwise; especially during actual seek ‘n read/write operations by the drive’s head… But if in general spin mode it is noisey… I’d be somewhat concerned overall… regardless
However, as you have the same situation with another drive installed… it does not sound like it’s the (original) drive itself; but likely something internal re’ the motherboard; even something as simple as a loose connection… Not entirely unknown for onboard connectors to loosen etc… But that of course means “going inside”… and not everyone is really into that routine…
On-board power supply “might be failing; the chips are reasonably robust these days; but then they can fail… Even plug-in chips can work loose (although not very often an occurrence these days – unless one is really violent with the kit…)?
If you put the original drive into another system, does it show there – at least try to boot etc; does the drive led (if there is one on that system) show/indicate there is a drive there? Even better of course connect to another system via usb adapter (as suggested earlier)? I f the drive shows up via usb – then it’s not the drive… Something is amiss in the drive’s laptop original home…
I find a usb-adpater kit invaluable these days; both to test a drive, and also to temporarily access one via a working system…

Normally you use a utility to clone the hard drive to the new one, shut down and swap out the drives and it will boot from it. The manufacturer of the new drive you purchased offers this utility FREE for download if you purchased the drive without a software disk. This is what I would recommend. If the new drive is larger than the older one you may end up with a partition of about the size of the old drive. You can use Disk Manager to either extend this partition or to use the additional unassigned space to create a new partition.
You have to be a little bit crazy to keep you from going insane.
