    New I have a dual boot with two SSD


    I have a dual boot with two SSD. On both are W10 systems, let's say W10 and W10 test.
    Till yesterday it worked as follows: booting up bios; Bios (or DOS?) screen in which to select which OS. After selection immediately the selected OS system started.
    Today I updated W10 test to version 1803 and I run into boot troubles. After some repairs and new setting with easyBCD I have again the dual boot working, but not the way I prefer.
    Now after booting up the bios, a blue Windows screen appears which offers me to select one of the OS. When I select W10 an immediate start takes place. In contrast, when I select W10 test, a new bios startup takes place, which finally results in starting up W10 test. Everything takes more time.
    Any ideas what happened and how to retain the old behaviour?

    :)
     

  2. How to Clone 'dual boot' Win7/Win10 HDD to new SSD

    Hi Jackos,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    I suggest you to create a system image of Win7/Win10 and apply it to SSD.

    To create system image on Windows 10 follow the below steps.

    • Type File history in the search area on the taskbar and select File history.
    • Click on System image backup on the left bottom corner of the Window file history Window.
    • Click on Create System Image on the left panel of the System Image backup windows.
    • Select the driver, where you want to create system Image.
    • Follow on screen instruction.
    If you want to perform a dual boot you can refer to the below link and check if it helps:

    Dual Booting with Windows 8.1


    The procedure below will allow you to boot Windows separately or in dual boot configuration.
    Here's what I recommend to do:
    • Disconnect the drive containing Windows 8.1
    • Install Windows 10 with one drive connected.
    • After step 2, reconnect the drive containing Windows 8.1
    • Boot up Windows 8.1. Open disk management and take a note of the drive letter of Windows 10 OS.
      NOTE: if you boot up Windows 10, then take a note of Windows 8.1 drive letter
    • Open Admin command prompt and type: bcdboot X:\windows where X: is the drive letter of Windows 10 (Windows 8.1 if you boot from Windows 10 in step 4)
    • Reboot the PC. You should have a dual boot screen.

    NOTE: To break off the dual boot setting, Win+R->msconfig->boot and delete the none default entry on the list.
