SSD conversion from HDD

Thread needs solution

I recently changed from a HDD to a SSD for my operating system drive on Windows 7 Home Premium X64. I backed up my original HD (disk backup mode) with ATI 2013 to a second HD. I then restored the backup to my new SSD and rebooted. Everything appears to work well except the Windows System Partition was resized from 100MB to 48MB. My partition offset on the SSD appears to be correct.

Does anyone know why this occurred and how to correct it?

When you did the restore, you did not manually set the partition sizes, and Acronis auto adjusted the partitions to make the image fit the smaller drive.

You can use disk partition management software to adjust the partition sizes, or you can create a new backup image of the SSD, and then restore it using manual partition resizing to change the size of the partitions during the restore process.
