Both are SATA, both 80 GB. - Seagate was blank formated NTFS. Also Maxtor is NTFS. - Maxtor has 2 partitions. In the cloning process I have choose "equilibrating option" to made 2 new partitions in new Seagate. No problems in the cloning process and all data were copied. - I had remove Maxtor HD before startup Seagate first time - Cloning operation was made in Windows, then excuting Acronis in the same source Maxtor HD. I don't know where is the failure... I can see all dates. It seems the only failure is in the boot process. I have tried a fixboot and fixMBR without success. I will be happy to know any advice before trying again. thanks in advance wert, Jul 2, 2007 #3 Brian K Imaging Specialist Joined: Jan 28, 200
