Q: Why cannot I boot from the destination disk after restoring or cloning disk by bootable CD?

A:

1. It may happen if you restore or clone the disk containing the Operating System to the destination disk with different interface. (The disk with SCSI interface is more likely to have this problem.) In this situation, you can restore it to the disk with same interface.

2. It may happen if you restore the Operating System to the destination disk with different heads and sector numbers per track. In this situation, you can restore it to the disk with the same disk parameters as the source disk, or please see "Why does it fail to boot after restoring or cloning disk in Windows 8/XP/2003?"

3. It may happen if you install the Windows on a logical partition, and the capacity of the source disk is larger than that of the destination disk. In this situation, you can restore the Operating System to a disk larger than the source disk or the source disk.
