Swapping two laptops using system image backup
My wife and I both have laptops and we want to swap them over because my Asus has a larger screen that her toshiba.
I thought that I could do this by making an image backup on an external drive and then using the recovery from system of win 7 to backup the image of the toshiba onto the Asus. this did not work. I keep going round in circles of getting an error window saying that I should use the recovery disk to boot the computer, which of course is what I was doing in the first place
I have read everything I can on the subject but no solution. Is the problem the fact that the toshiba is running 32 bit whereas the Asus is 64 bit ?
any suggestions please ??
thanks Ed
