Disk Cloning

Thread needs solution

I have used true image to clone a disk and when the disk is installed into the computer as the primary drive a disk read error occurs. I have tried this with 2 disks and get the same results. When I look at the disk via acronis or windows xp. I can see the partitions and they look OK. The C partition is shown as active.

When I look at the disk as an external drive the files all appear to be there as on the original disk.

When the original disk is placed back in to the computer it boots up without any issues. I have cloned disks in the past without any issues.

Is there any suggestions as to what to try?

My suggestion would be to check every partition on the source disk for disk errors and this would also apply to checking any non-lettered partitions for disk errors. If you have non-lettered partitions, then temporarily assign a drive letter so that partition could also be checked.
