mare1 Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Problem after resetting full backupimage with AOMEI Backupper 4.6.1Tech I've a just new laptop: Medion Akoya E6440 (MD 62800), with windows 10 home. After problems with uninstalling the preinstalled office (with no activation, you can only try it for 30 days, very fine!), I tried to reset a full backupimage with AOMEI Backupper 4.6.1 Tech. Very often I've done this with other PC"s. But this time it went wrong: The C-disk (boot) became D, and the Data-disk became C (I saw this with the explorer in the boot disk from AOMEI). Nothing gone, I suppose, only wrong driveletter. So it was impossible to boot: no recovery possible, even with a windows boot recoverydisk. No recoverypoints. Nothing to recover. I've tried to disconnect the HDD , so that windows must boot from SSD. But as far as I can see there is just 1 disk together SSD (256g) and HDD (1TB)) Does anyone knows what I have to do. I can boot from USB. I've a Hirens boot disk. Can I use this? Or maybe someone has the boot disk from EasyBCD? I don't know if this EasyBCD boot disk can help. The program EasyBCD can't make a boot disk: you've to buy a boot disk. Regards mare1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.D Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 EasyBCD Program is free for private use . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mare1 Posted January 14, 2019 Author Share Posted January 14, 2019 Yes it is free, but you have to buy a boot disk, it isn,t possible to creatie one in the program self. Regards mare1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v8commodore Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Can't you change the boot device in the bios, then change the drive letter once in windows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mare1 Posted January 14, 2019 Author Share Posted January 14, 2019 Yes. I've tried to boot from SSD in the uefi. But no success Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be aware of this: AOMEI Backupper can wrongly see a hard disk (even with some GPT partitions) as MBR if it wasn't initialized to GPT first. AOMEI Backupper can perfectly do a full backup of GPT disks, but can fail when it comes to restore them! You need to initialize your disk as GPT (with AOMEI Partition Assistant or any other app which includes this feature) (Note : ALL data will be erased after initialization) EasyBCD is used to modify the boot record (MBR) Use a bootable WinPE instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mare1 Posted January 14, 2019 Author Share Posted January 14, 2019 Ok i'll try it. Thank you for your reaction Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mp68terr Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Maybe missing something but... You have 2 physical disks (SSD+HDD). Did the backup program put the info from both drives in a single image? You likely have two images, one for the SSD and one for the HDD. How comes that you cannot recover the SSD-image into the SSD and the HDD-image into the HDD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mare1 Posted January 14, 2019 Author Share Posted January 14, 2019 No, the only backupimage I've made is from my SSD disk and is placed on my Hdd. I 've tried to restore the C-disk (Ssd) but the C-disk become the D-disk (on the SSD). Just a different letter but it gives much problems 😟 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mare1 Posted January 20, 2019 Author Share Posted January 20, 2019 Of course I'll let you know if I've managed to fix this problem 😎. But till now I've not fixed it. I've tried to fix it with EasyBCD on the Hiren’s BootCD PE. But after booting: the same problem. I've tried to fix it with the Macrium Reflect boot USB. On the disk I saw a program item to repair boot problems, but also here: the same (bad) results. So I think it is better to reinstall windows. that takes less time than fix the problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mare1 Posted January 20, 2019 Author Share Posted January 20, 2019 Yes, I restored the Windows partition with the Aomei rescue disk. I' ve done this many times before on other machines. This time it was performed not very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mare1 Posted January 22, 2019 Author Share Posted January 22, 2019 Yes! I managed it! In the UEFI I saw 2x the same bootmanager on the SSD. So I tried to boot from NO:2 and I was in windows. I don''t know how this all could happen: it is windows I suppose. Thank all of you for advising me!! Great forum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
