    Macrium Cloned HDD to SDD - User Password Incorrect


    Well, after what I thought had been a successful transfer of my HDD to a new SDD, I managed a whole day before problems have arisen!!!

    When I first logged in, no problem as Windows accepted my login passcode. However, a few hours later when I woke the laptop, it kept giving me error messages saying that the password was incorrect and to use that associated with my Microsoft account. I used this password, but still coming up as incorrect.

    Checked the password on my iPad and it was the correct one. After a few more attempts, it then goes into the automatic repair mode and then could not repair your PC.

    Yesterday I swapped the HDD back, and reran Macrium. When I reinstalled the SSD, same issue - ok at first login, but after closing down and restarting, same messages and yet again back into the automatic repair cycle.

    I have looked up the issue and some are saying it could be a keyboard issue and to pull up the on-screen keyboard.....but when I go into the command prompt, it does not recognise the OSK command.

    Interestingly, I dont seem to have experienced this issue with the original HDD.....so far......

    Can anyone help before I drop kick everything down the garden!!!!

    :)

    HDD to SDD OS transfer

    I am trying to clone (or even image) my 1TB-HDD to a Kingston 120GB-SDD. Space is not issue as I'm only using 70GB on the HDD. My problem is sector size. My HDD sectors are 512 (not 512e) and the SDD sectors are 4096. I'm also unable to use my system image/backup
    because it is on a HDD with the same sector size (512). I've tried a number of cloning programs, including Macrium Reflect, with no success. Is there a way around this?

    Macrium Cloned HDD to SDD - User Password Incorrect

    SDD and a HDD windows 10

    I have Windows 10 installed on a 525gb SDD. I have a 1tb HDD that I'm using for my data. I've been reading a lot of conflicting tweaks to use on the SDD. Help!

    1. Should I eliminate the swap on the SDD? I do a have a windows managed swap file on the HDD.

    2. Should I turn off indexing on the SDD?

    3. Should I turn off system restore on the SDD?

    Most of the articles I've been reading have been a couple of years old. I know that the current SDDs are better but do these same tweaks apply now?

    Any info and suggestions are appreciated.

    Thanks
