   Howdy! Tom,   
      
   The 2nd try with TI Home 2010 didn't work.   
   All I saw was the Welcome screen again and little bit of black screen   
   and heard the HDD click once and the Welcome screen showed up again.   
      
   I just tried a Clone with Macrium Reflex but haven't got the HDD in   
   the notebook yet.   
      
   I will let You know what occurs.

   Later:   
   The notebook booted up and I was able to Log On.   
   I looked at it in Windows Explorer and saw that the partition that was   
   F: while the HDD was attached to the USB Adapter was now C: ,   
   but the DATA partition remained at G: as it was when the HDD was on the   
   Adapter.   
      
   Close, but not perfect yet.   
      
   My thinking is that the TI Home 2010 program may not had know how to   
   properly handle Cloaning a 1TB HDD, and Macrium Reflex being later   
   software did.   
   I don't know, that is all I can think may had caused the problem with   
   the older Acronis software.   
      
   Now to get the G: changed to D: on the HDD, so back to   
   Windows Help&Support to read how to do that.
