I was having a similar error, I attempted to install it like 15 times, I tried everything, deleting the Software Distribution files, a Windows Update fix exe from Microsoft, etc.

Finally I noticed...

:doh:

Thank you very much! That did it....

And regarding the Partition size, yeah, it's huge, I'll look into it, I never finished installing everything... I'm going to leave that unallotacted...

Thanks!

I run it but... it still says disabled...

C:\WINDOWS\system32>Reagentc /setreimage /path T:\Recovery\WindowsRE /target C:\Windows
Directory set to:...

Thanks!

I noticed that for the CD/DVD drive only.... It's the only one that actually says UEFI in one, and nothing in the other

Bad boy lol

I disabled them now just in case, but after everything was working :D

Since I don't have any more OS installed it won't do anything, just overkill....

I have a feeling that if I...

Yes, I lost it during the Windows Restore, it re-created several temporary partitions I had and formated everything, no biggie, it's all in an external hard drive...

And about that NVRAM / Disk ,...

Note: I just converted my Disk 2 to GPT, and it has a Partition of 128 MB

DISKPART> select disk 2

Disk 2 is now the selected disk.

DISKPART> clean

DiskPart succeeded in cleaning the disk.

*** Note: I didn't realized it now says Windows Boot Manager, now I'm even more confused)

1st of all, thank you very much, guys!

Current Disk Management (Man, it looks awful at the moment)...

Hold on, I think I got it....
(I was trying the automatic repair from windows just in case, prior to doing that manual bcdboot and others... But got tired of waiting and, yes, I'm the worst but I...

It's the restored partition, I doubt there's any trace left from that old Win7 install...

Yes, only Disk 0 is connected an can't boot.

And the blinking " _ " is the same as when I did it the...

Yes

Clean and convert disk 0 to GPT (CHECK)
Use Macrium to image Windows Partition (currently on disk 2) to disk 1 (or external drive). No need for system reserved only C: (CHECK)

Yes, I use those instructions, and checked that other thread as well...

I'm about to throw in the Windows Recovery disk....

I was able to boot into the clean install..

Then it took almost 2 hours to restore the partition (for barely 140 GB)

There was an option to "Replace Master Boot Record" with the old one from...

No money to invest in an SSD right now...
I'm finishing copying the image and then to the tedious part of disconnecting the hard drives .......
Thanks for the help and summing up the steps =)

At risk of sounding like my mother when she says: "But I didn't touch anything!" lol, I recall having selected only the System Reserved + Win Partition + Recovery Partition, and no I haven't moved...

The Acronis image was in Disk 2, and was lost when I restored the Windows Backup Image, everything is back as if I never did anything.
It re-partitioned / and over-wrote everything in both disks 0 &...

Thank you both!

For sure, I'm still not sure how he understood anything before :D I can't wrap my head around what I wrote

I'll re-image and try this again disconnecting the hard drives. Hope...

Thanks!



Yes, although it's gone now, Windows Recovery re-formated both Disk 0 & Disk 2.... No biggie, they were just sound libraries, I'm running Data Recovery now to see if I can get them...

Hello!

(I apologize in advance for the headache reading this will cause)

I'm trying to move my Windows 10 partition to another hard drive, and change the disk to GPT without losing data.
