Hi, I'm attempting to upgrade the hdd in my laptop and used Migrate 7.0 to clone the drive. The current hdd has 2 partitions C: and D:. After cloning and replacing the drive the C: drive is reading as D: so the computer is only booting to a blank screen. I swapped and checked the drives and they are both reading as the same size and in the same place, however the C: partition on the new hdd doesn't have a letter but a * and to confuse things more my original C: seems to be marked as an EISA partition which could be the problem as I think they are normally hidden.
Any advice on how to get it to assign the partitions properly?

Hello Alan!

Thank you for reporting about the issue! Let me help you with it and guide the case till its complete resolution.

Unfortunately due to the lack of investigation information we can only guess about the reason, so we would appreciate if you could kindly specify us the following information: 

  • Could you please gather Acronis Report for us from the source and the target drive? 
  • In what mode did you clone the drives? 
  • Have you unplugged the second drive after cloning before you booted the machine?
  • Have you performed cloning from Acronis Bootable Rescue Media or from Windows?

Please kindly contact us with the information gathered, we will review it and definitely find a solution.

Thank you in advance for cooperation, I will be waiting for news from you!
