Hello,
I want to clone my System form 250er HDD (IDE) to a 400er S-ATA HDD. The the clonig process working fine. In BIOS I set the 400er HDD as Boot device. System (WinXP SP2) boot pretty but befor logon I see for few seconds the information "acronis true image - file not found" and the system reboot. I have disconnect the IDE HDD without better results. Pleaese help me. btw: I only wont to clone the System partition to another device not the whole hdd. Can i make a Backup from the 250 IDE HDD and restore it to the new 400er S-ATA ? |

Cloning IS making a copy of the ENTIRE drive to another drive.
What you need is the Backup feature. Does your 250 gig drive have more than the one partition with the OS? |

Hello thkogel,
Thank you for choosing Acronis Disk Backup Software. We are sorry for the delayed response. When you are backing up a hard drive, you may later restore only chosen partitions. Please note that as Ralphie pointed, cloning always makes a copy of the entire drive. Please refer to chapter 13 “Transferring the system to a new disk” of the respective User's Guide for details. Please note that it is strongly not recommended to have several system hard drives connected during a boot sequence. So we would recommend you to detach one of the drives before booting the system after cloning is complete. Quote:
As for transferring your operating system from IDE to SATA hard drives, please take a look at this article. Thank you. -- Marat Setdikov
