DiscWizard created new partition on restored system

Using DiskWizard to clone harddrive from system a to b (both WIndows 7) 

Everything worked fine but system b ended up with a extra partition (D: drive) with an inov8log and a few other folders. 

 

 Any ideas why and how to get rid of it?

Re: DiscWizard created new partition on restored system

Hello,

I have the same problem under Win7.

I wanted to create a clone from my new seagate HD to my older seagate HD.

 

As the new HD to be cloned had partitions C and D  (and a hidden partition-100MB- created by Win7) , the cloning process (done with Discwizard latest version (11) ) created the partitions E (reserved to system), F (copy of C) , H (reserved to system), and I (copy of D).  The G is the DVD.

 

A previous attempt of cloning only the C failed and I had an error message "No Boot Manager". 

The boot manager is found in the 100MB hidden partition created by Win7 and, as this partition was not cloned, I could not boot from the newly created partition.

 

So, the whole thing is working correctly now but I find annoying to have all this drive letters.:smileysad:

Is there a solution for that ?

 

Thank you.
