Disc copy doesnt work
I have a 500GB Seagate drive that works fine. I used Acronis to copy this to a 1Tb drive. (Both are SATA2)
When I boot from the new drive it seems to work OK, except that at some point ( from a few mins to an hour ror so later) after booting up, the machine locks up. The symptoms are:
Drive light stays on constantly. Resource Monitor shows 100% highest active time (although there are no processes shown accessing the drive). Applications running all show "(not responding)" on them. After some time, I get a BSOD ( A process or thread crucial to the system.......).
I have run Seatools and it reports nothing wrong. The disc copy seems to have worked OK as well.
I have tried several boot methods: just changing the boot sequence and also switching the cables to make the new drive a lower drive number. Neither has worked
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Sorry - I meant clone. I created a boot disc and used that to clone the 500Gb to the 1Tb disc.
