Failed to restore from VHD image
I attempted to move W7 x64 from one physical drive to another by restoring VHD image but failed. The details as follows:
I added a new physical drive, created three primary partitions and one extended partitions in which three logical partition were further created.
I created and saved a VHD file for the W7 x64 on one of the three logical partitions.
I set the top primary partition active.
Shut off the machine and removed the old physical hdd where W7 is installed.
Tuned on the machine, inserted the W7 x64 DVD, booted from it and selected “Repair”
The VHD image on the logical drive was detected.
When it attempted to restore from the system image the following message was returned. What could be wrong with the above steps?
The system image restore failed.
