'This version of Windows Recovery System is not compatible ...'
The first time I did this, it worked. Well, eventually; but it worked.
I won't bore everyone with a repetition of details from previous threads; suffice it to say that the Windows Recovery USB stick that worked the first time I took an image from my old HDD and restored it to my new SSD, doesn't seem to want to do the exact same thing a second time.
Because I didn't quite get it right the first time, I've started from scratch, basically: re-imaged the original HDD ( with the new SSD removed from the system ), removed the HDD and plugged in the SSD, gone to do the restore ( which, as I say, worked perfectly the first time ( that wasn't the bit I got wrong )), and I get a message saying 'This version of Windows Recovery System is not compatible with the version of Windows you are trying to restore'.
Ever seen a grown man cry ...?
From where I'm sitting, this defies all logic, but I'm sure someone out there will know what's going on. Please tell me ...!
