Cannot boot from original drive after clone

Thread needs solution

Hi.

I have just bought a new WD HDD 4 TB blue for use as an second drive insteed of my Samsung HDD 1 TB. As system drive I use Samsung SSD 500 GB.

So I thought I better clone my second drive to the new drive. I've downloaded Acronis True Image WD Edition Software Version: 2016 WD Edition, Build 33 , from WD support site. I installed it and started to clone from HDD 1 TB to my new (initialized) 4TB drive.

Now I can't boot from any of my drives. How is this possible? What to do? Any help are most appreciated.

Regards Anders.
