clone a faulty hard drive to a smaller hard drive --- w8.1 -- clonezilla --- macrium reflect -- minitools -- partition wizard

clone a faulty hard drive to a smaller hard drive --- w8.1 -- clonezilla --- macrium reflect -- minitools -- partition wizard

now my w8.1 running on a faulty hard disk with bad clusters

its a 500GB disc

I have an old 320 GB disc to use

500GB --- 320 GB

I tried with marium reflect free edition ... it wont do that coz bad sectors and mft errors

I offload data to a usb disc

tried to shrink the partition to be less that 320GB, but it wont let me , it only allow me shrink 104GB for whatever reason

loaded minitools  --- partition wizard ....

resize the partition to 150GB , the disk has two partitions 1 reserved, 1 normal C:

I used clonezilla before, and I wanted to use it again

I have to recreate an partition for C: on the 320 GB drive

then boot the PC with clonezilla usb disc

choose partition to partition mode

tick rescue

it cloned the disk with bad clusters , it took 2.5 hours for about 145GB data

then reboot ,, it booted to light blue screen 0x000xxx error

press enter or F8 .... showing winload.exe missing .... I think I know what that is ....

boot the PC with M-PE disc, repair windows boot problems ....

restart again, it booted to normal mode....

stop wimdows 8.1 automatic repair loop and stop scanning and repairing disk shiite

stop wimdows 8.1 automatic repair loop and stop scanning and repairing disk shiite

I have an old w8.1 desktop, windows popped out a message that its failing, and confirmed by bios smart fail

I run chkdsk /r , and it could not finish ,

run chkntfs x c: .... no luck either

to stop automatic repair loop .... click restart

to stop chkdsk loop is bit tricky, as I have to press a key in 1 sec before the scanning starts

but my usb kn with kvm could not get that in time

luckily i still got a old compaq ps/2 kb and the old mb has ps/2 port

eventually i cancel the disk scanning

it booted to light blue screen,

restart again.... it booted to normal windows mode
