A little more detail. The partition above that wouldn't clone is the C drive, the main windows installation. What apparently would clone, though, is the factory restore partition. I thought I was in the money. But when I set it Active and booted to it it said "no operating system", so apparently the partition is deficient.
Thanks, Sandeep. Please see PM.
