Hello everybody,
I have a brand new HP Probook 4540s that came with windows 8. It has no upgraded hardware, just whatever HP tossed in when they built it.
Whenever I get a new computer I remove the HDD and connect it to another computer with a SATA to USB adapter and install a clone back up I have that was made with Acronis True Image.
I have done this procedure several times in the last couple of years and it always works just fine. I don't have a problem getting the clone image onto the HDD but after I place it back into the laptop and turn on the computer the computer wont see the OS.
I have disabled all the BIOS security options. The image is Win 7 Pro.
I have been at this for several days now and have attempted to do some research on the internet but have been unable to find anything.
All help is appreciated, thanks.
