Backup image restored to new HD. Boot failure
I restored an image file of my boot drive to a new HD, which is Win7-64. When I rebooted, I went into bios and put new HD as the only boot drive. When the new HD boots, it gives me the following error message: "Reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key". I have not disconnected the old drive, so both are still connected. How do I get all the boot files to the new drive?
EDIT: Since I am able to boot with the old HD (and not the new one), I went in to disk management and made the new HD active. I only had to do this twice before it stayed active, but I keep getting the same error message. I will try the boot repair method using the Win7 disk.
