I am trying to replace my win10 80G hard drive with 300G drive.
I cloned the drive except that I increased the partition size from 80G to 300G.
When I boot the new drive, I get the following.
RECOVERY
Your PC/Device needs to be repaired.
A required device isn’t connected or can’t be accessed.
Error code 0x000000e
Press F8 for Startup Setting
When I press F8 I get:
The application or OS couldn’t be loaded because a required file is missing or contains errors:
File: Windows\system32\winload.exe
I ran Spinrite on the drive and it is all good.
What is going wrong?
Is there a more reliable way to replace drives?
Any advice here will be appreciated.
