Macrium Reflect Cloned Drive Does Not Boot in New HP Laptop
(Note this is for Windows 10)
I have a similar situation to this thread:
Cloned drive won’t boot up
I recently purchased a new HP laptop:
Amazon.com: HP 2023 Newest Laptop Pavilion 17.3" HD+ Laptop Computer, AMD Ryzen 3 7320U(Up to 4.1GHz, Beat i3-1125G4), AMD Radeon Graphics, 8GB DDR5 RAM, 256GB NVMe SSD, WiFi 6, HDMI, Numeric Keypad, Windows 11 : Electronics
We have an older (very slower) Acer that we are replacing. It has an SSD drive. The HP has a NVME drive. I purchased an adapter to plug the NVME into the Acer's USB and cloned the C: drive to the NVME via USB.
Everything looks and feels like it worked. I put the NVME into the HP but it no longer boots, saying it has a 3F0 Hard Disk Error:

I've gone into Macrium's rescue boot and "Fixed boot problems" but nothing seems to work. The drive is detected and there. I've run the BIOS test on it and everything seems OK, it just does not see the boot option.
I am open to any suggestions on how I can get a bootable drive to be seen here. Thank you for any assistance you can provide.
