Did you follow the steps in Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7?
Did you enable Automatically get recommended drivers and updates for your hardware which assures the printer and other hardware drivers are delivered and installed correctly?
There may be glitches that need to be worked out, e.g you may need to install or reinstall flashplayer in a browser, install all or part of the full printer software package from it's Support Downloads webpage if the Win7 driver isn't enough. Some programs may need troubleshooting to run correctly. We are here to help you with that instead of just junking the whole install.
I am not trying to junk the install ( which was transferred from a backup image on an HDD).
I was told that the partitions have to be divisible by a whole number and only one is. (pic in a reply to ignatzatsonic.
The install, though, seems perfect.
As I told ignatzatsonic. I am going to try again by installing it on a spare hdd and see if I can figure out why the first one failed.
I thought both had to be divisible by 4096 and return a whole number.
The second one doesn't.
The truest test is performance. If it's instantaneous and doesn't ever hang then it's a keeper.
Why did you want to Clean Reinstall in the first place? Very wise to make the backup image. But the issues you mentioned are fixable as I've seen them all handled here before.
The only reason is I was told that a transfer from an image on the hdd to ssd is not good.
I think that was misinformation, as the partitions, which I was told would be misaligned, are not.
This install seems fine and I am going to keep it.
I just want to do a test on an hdd to see what I didn't do right on the ssd install.
When I was having the issues with the previous install on the ssd, I posted and couldn't get a resolution.
