Sorry about the long question, but I wanted to put as much information as possible. I wonder if you're able to run just the last part of Acronis where it does something to make the drive bootable again. When i plug my original drive (120GB) i boot no problem and are able to see the 2TB drive. I tried using r in the recovery cd but it can not find the drive. I did change the Boot.ini file with no success. I believe it is because the drive moved from the HDD4 volume 4 position. When rebooted, this is when i received the above error. I was going to use the drives in an external enclosure.

I formatted and deleted some of the other partitions on the other drives. Now I started moving all my data from the other drives to the 2TB drive.

I did that and to my surprise the pc booted with no problem to new 2TB drive that I had partitioned into C: 320GB D: 200GB and E: 1.4TB. At the ending process Acronis told me to shut down the pc and unplug the original drive(120GB) before i reboot.

I used the Clone manual option so I can resize my disk. I connected the 2TB drive and it showed up as volume 4. I wasn't sure this was going to work because the new RE4(2TB) drive was going to be a boot drive that was connected to a pci SATA controller card. I tried to clone my IDE 120 GB drive to a SATA 2 TB WD RE4 drive that is connected to a SATAII pci card.

I have Windows XP that i have been running for a long time. "Windows could not start because of a computer disk hardware configuration problem.Ĭould not read from selected boot disk. " Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt. I am getting the following error after I successfully cloned my hard drive. I say successful because everything booted and worked until I moved around some drives.

I am using Acronis True Image Home version 10.0 (build 4,942)
