High, long time windows user, new to the forum.
I'm hopping to catch some windows gurus for this.
So, my girlfriends HDD bit the bullet a week ago and corrupted the disk formating. Windows reads it as an empty disk ready to format. That being said, I was able to recover the entire drive with a...

Keeping all files & settings also if possible.
Thanks.
I added a solid state drive last night. I then used Norton Ghost 15 to copy my old drive to my new one. I started the copy process and went to bed. When I woke up the next morning the PC was off. I unplugged the old hard drive and turned the PC on. I then saw the BOOTMGR is missing message.

Can I create a backup laptop hard drive using Windows 7 Backup? I'm hoping to create an HD that will be an exact replica of the one in my machine, so that if it crashes I can simply replace it with the backup HD and there will be no differences at all. When I tried to do this, the new HD had...
Is it possible to transfer everything from an old computer to a new one so it is like a mirror image?
For example if I was using an Acer and wanted it to mirror image everything onto a Dell?
Thanks in advance.

im wondering this, because when i ghost the drive using norton ghost...
Is there any way to restore a system image to a new SMALLER drive than that from which it was created, even though the image size is much smaller than the new drive? According to the help file it's not possible. Is there a work around?
Maybe I could copy the files across then do a system...
