    So I have come to the conclusion that there is no way to clone, Or transfer the Image from the HDD.

    So I started back from square one,
    I boot to the usb windows media disk
    Delete all partitions
    install windows
    change the bios to boot to the drive
    nothing happens, and it tells me to reboot and install a boot disk.
    I'm out of options.

    Not yet - I am guessing you have done an mbr install on a UEFI pc or something like that.

    Boot from usb stick, and press shift + f10 to get to a command prompt and type following commands

    diskpart

    list disk

    list volume

    and cut and paste text to here for us to see what it looks like.

    Turns out the drive has a 3 year warranty, so Kingston is sending me a replacement,
