Error while Copying C: Drive

[Thunderbird2242]

Hey Guys!
I was trying to clone my C Drive from my old hard drive into my new hard drive.
It never completes, showing a cyclic error.
Is there any solution?
What else can I do? Install a new OS altogether??
THANKS IN ADVANCE!

Hi

Is error from old hard drive or new hard drive
It indicates you have bad sectors

You need to run some diagnostics on the hard drives
hirens boot cd has a collection of hdd diagnostics

What application are you using to clone drive C:? Normally such programs (e.g. Acronis True Image) require a restart to complete the process, as certain parts of the drive cannot be copied while Windows is active.

I am using Macrium Reflect, I also tried it with Driveimage XML, shows more or less the same error!
Any Solutions??

You might try a chkdsk /f from an elevated command prompt (i.e. run as Administrator). A restart will be needed to complete this scan. If it works, great. If not, the hard drive may be dying. You might try a backup utility to copy as much off of it as you can, then freshly install your OS onto a new drive.
