Cannot boot from cloned drive

[CTrap33]

I recently upgraded from a 240Gb ssd to a 512ssd. I used EaseUS to clone the 240gb to the 512gb. The clone completed, I unplugged my 240gb and restarted my computer. I then went into the BIOS and selected to boot from the 512GB, however it will not boot. Did I miss something here? I thought cloning would put the OS (windows 7 in my case) on the new SSD...

Please help. Thanks.

In EaseUs there is a box you need to check that allows the boot sectors (MBR) to be cloned as well. I'm guessing you didn't do that.

Sounds about right. I'll give it another shot.

Worked like a charm. Thanks

Made that same mistake myself. They need to make that the default.

Btw, don't forget to tweak the drive/Windows after it's cloned: http://www.computing.net/howtos/show/solid-state-drive-ssd-tweaks-for-windows-7/552.html
