Hard drive cloning trouble
I own a HP Compaq nx9010 (DH939U) Laptop with spec.s = (Mobile Intel Pentium [R]4 precessor,3.06GHz 3059Mhz 1core 1 logical processor,1GB ram,Bios version/date = Phoenix Technologies Ltd. KF_KH.F.21 3/18/2004 & SMBIOS = 2.3).
I 1st cloned my original hard drive "Seagate model ST 94019A 40GB hard drive" [running Windows XP Pro] to a "Western Digital model WD2500BEVE 250GB hard drive" by using "Bouncbak" hard drive cloning software & everything went fine.
I then decided to upgrade to "Windows Vista Nvidia Evolution/version 6.0.6001/with service pack 1" & installed it on a "Fujitsu model MT2060AH PL 60GB hard drive" which runs great & I'm currently using.
I later cloned that "Fujitsu model MT2060AH PL 60GB hard drive" [running Windows Vista Nvidia Evolution/version 6.0.6001/with service pack 1] onto another brand new "Western Digital model WD2500BEVE 250GB hard drive" (using "Bouncbak" hard drive cloning software) again but the installation process took 8 to 10hrs. But did work.
When I installed the newly cloned "Western Digital model WD2500BEVE 250GB hard drive" into my Laptop & turned it on the Laptop's hard drive activity light stays lit & blinks once every hr. to 1hr.30min. Or so & my Laptop's activity appears to be (frozen,system lock-up etc... ) but it actually is running thoe,just at a snail's pace,it takes it (1hr20min. Or so) to just to boot up.
It does eventually boot-up,but still running at the same snail's pace.
I've tried several different versions of "Windows Vista" (even fresh installs onto a brand new or a re-formatted "Western Digital model WD2500BEVE 250GB hard drives) & I tried using "Acronis" hard drive cloning software but the out-come is still the same.
All of my "Windows XP Pro" versions run great thoe.
--- CAN ANYONE PLEASE,PLEASE,PLEASE HELP ME SOLVE THIS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING PROBLEM?? ---
