Hi, I cloned my system partition using software from my HDD manufacturer,
Maxtor, which seemed to be fine but a number of programs had problems. The
main ones being "Windows Installer" & "Microsoft Office 2003".
To get to the point while investigating I founed that the cloned copy had a
third-party Kernal and would not upgrade.
If everything had gone well and then in the future my system had failed and
I would be left using a system which did not have the "correct" kernal, what
are the implications? Do all cloning software have the same results?
I think I'll stick with an ASR recovery to get me out of trouble, I woud be
interested in an opinion from more experience minds.
Sorry it's a long post. Thanks.
