Machine transfer not working.
HP Pavilion, dv9700. 4gb ram, 240gb ssd + 2tb hdd. Acronis 2013 image backup on the 2tb, boot from acronis 2015 cd.
This dv9700 is failing. Got another dv9700 from ebay. It works perfectly fine with the 160gb hdd/win10 it came with. Move the 240 ssd to the new 9700, new machine does not see the 240g ssd - period. Got it to see a new wd 500gb ssd. restore the image from the 2tb with the acronis 2015 boot cd, and the win 7 ult x86 that is on the 240g ssd does not boot. gets to the start of the logo animation and freezes, then bsod's with 7b. put the same drive/image into the original (failing) machine, it all works perfectly. tried windows boot and repair stuff. no go. any thoughts?
only differences I know of between the 2 9700's aside from drives is that old has a cd/dvd, new has lightscribe. old is amd turion cpu, new is intel core 2 duo. old is 802.11n, new is 802.11ac.
