  • thumbs for half life 2

  • im tryin to install it but it wont let me register!!! even tried to redown load it again then reinstall, same thing, an error on registration!

  • @w33lerd33ler

    Quick update, Avast antivirus was blockin it, so if anyone has that, be sure to turn it off while installing!!

  • I have a 200GB hard drive which I used to transfer over to my 1TB and the 1TB hard drive has lost 800GB of its memory, so basically there is only 200GB of memory which can be stored on it (max). Where has the rest of the other 800GB of storage gone?

  • @SupaDupaTime you have to extend your partition under computer management disk management(vista or w7) if youre on xp youll have to download another program or use gparted on a live boot cd

  • Comment removed

  • Thanks for the link, saves time looking for a decent free HDD imager, though I wish I watched more of the video since I wasted a while Formating the new HDD when Acronis has to do it too.

    But the laptop I'm salvaging has two HDD and now with an enclosure I get a sweet pocket  sized external HDD.

  • I think software that you have to pay for after a trial period is called "Shareware"

    #themoreyouknow

  • im so jealous everyone's hard drive is twice bigger than both my disk C and D drives :(........

  • Will it move everything? including os.? my hdd is going to die soon i can tell. it is fairly new hdd but making wierd mechanical sounds, so need to transffer all asap

  • @Dayfoxx7000 ...Yes it will cloned your entire OS. I did this on my 40GB, cloned to a 80GB Raptor. And it copied the entire Windows XP Pro along with everything else, to the new Raptor!

  • I want to thank you very much for your video and help, i was having a very hard time upgrading to a 750gb hard drive and i downlaod many other cloning programs with no luck until i found your video. Thanks to you, i was able to save a lot of money and not taking my laptop to Best Buy and and paying for this process you have shown me.

    Thanks again

  • is there a way to transfer from two external drives without the computer

    one of my hard drive i fixed cannot be accessed for data for it needs to be formatted(i dont want to lose 2tb of data)

    i bought the same but with 3tb

    can i transfer the old to the new without the pc or is there a way to plug the two on my pc and somehow tell my New Hard drive to copy all the data of the old one or does it also need the old drive to be formatted?

  • its not just you yanks in the hole planet fucking americans why do CANADIANS even bother to go to war with you guys at the end of the day you think your all king shit CANADA CAN CHEW BUBBLE GUM AND KICK ASS ALL DAY AND NIGHT DUDE

  • Will it work if I am copying everything onto a smaller HDD?

  • I remembered seeing a close old friend used a floppy disk called ghost years ago. but as far I know the software was nothing like Norton ghost or any installing software.it runs through a boot then you just select the partitions to clone.

    I looking for it on web to download it if I find it I post a link :)

  • when im adding a new disk which file system type do i need to use for windows vista or 7?

  • i'm having problems cloning my old drive cause when i get to when it ask my old drive doesn't show up what can i do about that

  • Hiya, is it ok to clone a hdd from XP to Windows 7? My friend has cloned onto different operating systems for me in the past but I don't know if this can still be done? If it can be done will I set up the Windows 7 os installed on my new hdd before cloning? If can't is there any way of retrieving my programmes from XP and downloading onto Windows 7? Thanks a lot

  • Ok so i want to make a backup of my origional acer aspire 8943g hardrive. I want to include all the partitions and evrythig so that i can do some testing with other operating systems. I dont want the hastle of looking for drivers and stuff like that. So anyway my laptop has 2 hardrive slots. Do i still need the enclosure thing your talking about? I think i can just put it in and run the program rite? This is only if you have 1 hd slot? Please get back to me on this becayse i want to be sure bef

  • Guitar Pro 5, nice.

  • can you do this if you have a lower capacity ssd ? assuming your hard drive isnt filled past the capacity of the ssd

  • @BroknSircut Yes you can. I never worked with an SSD drive but I know its still using a SATA connection. As long if your data from your old drive is able to fit into the new one, it will be fine.

  • Really great!! Thanks!

  • Thank you.

    Worked great.

    Just the information I needed.

    I was upgrading a laptop harddrive Amazon had a SATA enclosure for $5 which worked great.

  • If i clone it will it delete everything on the new hard drive?

  • @XXXbeastmodeXXX21 If your new hard drive is not empty (formatted) and it depends on if you choose to load the cloned material onto that used partition.

  • @DhDo74 I just cloned my hard drive onto a larger hard drive. There was a bunch of data on the larger hard drive that I cloned the old one onto. I can't find it now and I am freaking out... did I lose it? Is there any way to get it back?

  • @XXXbeastmodeXXX21 LATEST VERSION of Acronis (free) does NOT allow cloning of entire drives.

  • mine gives errors like it couldnt write something to the new hd???

  • Do you think Acronis will work with a xbox 360 hard drive to make a new drive usable with Xbox? sorry if you answeredd this already, I just skimmed thru the responses real quick.

  • What's your operating system? Would this procedure work for 64-bit Win 7?

  • new hard drive that i want to format wont show up any tips

  • Thanks man I desperately needed more space I had a 40G and i just upgraded to a 1TB

  • It did not ask for an email upon download- but i think it did ask during set-up, i'll have to check

  • How can I use acronis after it has already expired? tried deleting and redownloading and still comes up expired- even tried changing the date on the computer so it was in the trial period? any ideas????

  • @joesdevil68 When you downloaded the trial did it ask for an email? If so, use another email account to download it. It should work.

  • @joesdevil68 also remove any registry entries in regedit. uninstalling clone disk will not remove reg entries. some elements are always left behind. you should be ok then to reinstall.

  • Will it transfer everything including the Operating System?

  • @ltohio Yes, everything including the operating system. When I say clean....damn boy do I mean CLONE!!!

  • @ltohio clone...not clean...wtf I am an idiot

  • cool thanks bro.

  • Ok, about to put in a hard for the first time. I want to install it then clone programs to the old drive then make it my main (C) drive. BTW.. I don't have a enclosure I want to just put it in the pc.

  • @RocHardEntGrp Cool story bro. This will work if you have a PC with an extra harddrive bay. Keep in mind, I made this video with experiences on a laptop so I apologize for any misunderstanding dealing with enclosures.

  • Comment removed

  • my new hard drive doesnt show reall (smaller)capacity after cloned ~~~ any ideas ????

  • ok.i'm using an 120gb hard disk and today i bought and installed a 640 gb hard disk!

    can i copy everything from the old to the new hard drive straight forward (copy the files using easy migrate,reboot and use the new hard disk) or do i have to make a copy of the old hard disk to 3rd hard disk and then copy the files to the new one??

  • @gerry13cs Use the software I showed you. It is straightforward and will do everything you need it to do.

  • @DhDo74 thanks for replying-it tried it but when total progress reaches 50% the computer shuts down and doesn't boot normally the next time,unless i press the reset button.do you know why is this happenning??

  • Why a external hard drive enclosure?

  • @Zorthaify You don't have to have the enclosure if you are working on a desktop computer with multiple harddrive bays. The reason why I mentioned an enclosure in this video was because I was working and recording on a laptop. My laptop only comes with one hard drive bay so I purchased an enclosure to house the new hard drive to transfer the data from my old one to it.

  • So this copys Windows too? Im about to buy a OCZ SSD and i want to transfer all me stuff (including Windows) to the SSD which is connected in the enclosure. Would it work? PLZ REPLY!

  • should i run the rocketfish softwaer which comes with it? or not

  • @medoweeeedo I don't see why it would be necessary.

  • Okay. i have a 65GB Hard drive with Windows 7 32 bit... I just recently bought a new 1TB hard drive to replace it. Problem is, I need to clone everything to my new hard drive.. which is an internal hard drive in case you wondering. What do I do?

  • @machpunchify Do the same thing I showed in this video. When I recorded this it was on a laptop and I bought an enclosure to do the transferring. Just pick the 65GB hard drive as the drive you want to copy and pick the 1TB as the hard drive you want to paste the data to. In the end it will work.

  • if i have windows 7 installed on my new hard drive and i clone my old one to the new hard drive. will windows be erased and reinstalled on my new hard drive???

  • @shinmasterx Nothing gets erased. Everything gets copied and transfered to the new hard drive you are wanting to clone to. At the end of the process, you will have two hard drives that have exactly the same data.

  • If i clone my hard drive.. will it save all my things that are saved on my desktop as well?

  • @svtang03 Yes, it saves everything.

  • It is not working for my WD SATA drive on Compaq Presario CQ62. The process stopped in the middle of the process, leaving a black screen.

    I had to use EASEUS DISK COPY instead.

    EASEUS DISK COPY is free and less time consuming than acronis migrate easy. It took 75min to transfer my 160G WD to 250G WD. And the new disk boots fine.

  • how can set up my SATA as slave?

  • @Lostkey23 Step 1: buy some chains, shackles and whips. Step 2: call your SATA drive some derogatory names. Step 3: give your SATA drive slave some tasks. Step 4: Get owned by Abraham Lincoln who abolishes slavery making all hard drives and men have equal stature.

  • @DhDo74 LMAO. i kno ur bein sarcastic but IS there a way to set up a SATA as a a slave drive???

  • hi is this also work on desk top?

  • @johntaheri Yes

    

  • Thank for the HU downloaded the program went like a dream had 74GB now got 1TB :-)

  • I managed to ruin my 120gb OCZ SSD trying to clone my C drive onto it. Thanks! Anyone know how to give the kiss of life to a dead SSD?????

  • @MagnusVideos Don't blame me for your incompetence.

  • @DhDo74 How does Acronis crashing during the bios boot transfer leaving you with absolutely no option but to hit the reset button equate to incompetence ??????

  • @DhDo74 I apologize.

  • Does it copy the program itself while the program is copying itself while the program is copying itself while the program is copying itself while the program is copying itself ?

  • @terlika77777 Not even kidding, this is the best question ever.

    Yes it does actually. Crazy loop huh? not really, it just copies itself.

  • yeah now im going to get a 500 gb sata 2 hdd and replace my old 80 gb ata/100 hdd :D

  • Hi! I tried to do as you said in the video to clone the OS to my new hard drive, but the program doesn't recognize my SSD hard drive. I formatted it in Windows and my Win7 Ultimate recognizes it and can use it as well as an external hard drive. What should I do?

  • Is it possible to transfer your OS on your current system to a new one? Like for example: Your system is running Win Vista Ultimate and you got a new system that runs Home Premium. Can you somehow get rid of that home premium and transfer your Ultimate edition on the new system?

  • @Sup750 I think I see what you are asking. I am going to assume you have 2 hard drives. One with Ultimate and the other is Home Premium. You can format the home premium hard drive and then run this program that I show you here and it will transfer everything from home premium to that hard drive.

  • @DhDo74

    The backstory is that: my notebook is running Win7 Ultimate. I wanna get a new system b/c mine is terribly slow (1.6 Ghz single core). The reason i ask is b/c most of the PCs at the stores are all running Win7 Home Premium and I don't wanna downgrade from Ultimate. The question I asked earlier was just an example, by the way. I'm asking if I get a PC that runs Home Premium, can I somehow get my Ultimate from my old one onto the new Home premium laptop/notebook?

  • THANK YOU I JUST HIT SUBSCRIBED!!!!!!

    Went from a 40gb to 1.5 tb drive

  • @Jimlauj a 40GB would not last me one day...lol

  • @RichGuy320 yea i know but that was my boot drive i was also running two ide 120gb as storage...was getting tired of all the heat they made so got my 1.5tb seagate works like a charm

  • SOOOOOOOO Wicked! hank you very much you saved me from blowing $115 on the easiest thing ever lol. YOU ROCK!

  • @hondadj Thanks for the awesome comment! It feels good knowing I helped someone save money!

  • @hondadj So after the 15 day free trial does your hard drive lock till you purchase the software lol?

  • @hondadj haha what the heck? no.

  • thanks

  • @Lostkey23 No, Thank YOU!

  • can the cloned partition be used on a new computer that has a blank harddrive

  • some question about cloning can you clone hard drive without cd/or dvd drive?

  • @Lostkey23 Yes you can

  • too much talk STFU already

  • 45 gigs? damn man i only have 3 gigs left

  • Thank you!!!! I wasn't sure how I was going to do it... This made it easy! You rock DUDE!

  • i cloned my laptop hdd to a usb external one with Hdclone, but it's not working :( when i start my laptop with the new hdd in it says it can't find Windows\sistem32\winload.exe. in the begining, i selected hdd to hdd clone. it automaticaly formated and partitioned my new hdd, i think it made my sistem partition bootable, but i have no clue where could be the problem :(

  • @stalkersas first problem should be with sistem32, that would be system32

  • When im on part 4 out of 5 it goes to like 20% and then shuts of the computer. What am i doing wrong? Do i have to run as administrator?

  • just making sure, if i hook up another HD to my computer i put the new one to slave right, then use hte software or can i leave it also as master. thanks

  • Thanks for your help. It really worked and it worked well. I used it to downsize my HDD and put in a SSD in my laptop and it worked perfectly

    Thanks heaps!

  • Great help. Thanks a lot

  • thanx a million i cudnt had done it w/o this video

  • Is that Guitar Pro 5 I see there? Nice program. I use it all the time ;)

  • man i dont give a fuck how you talk man, this was great it helped me very much. wonderfull hahaha. thanx dude right on we are jammin man

  • hi ive cloned my 80gb drive to a 160gb hard drive now when i use the 160gb hard drive it thinks is a 80gb that what shows uo,cant any one help with correcting this plese

  • @sgtpete1 Did you figure out the problem with cloning that hard drive yet?

  • Dude, I Did This On My Hp Mini 110... And It Worked... I've been Tryin To Do This For A While And Couldn't... Thnx A Lot!!!!

  • Questions: 1) This works for 2 internal hard drives correct? 2) I also have another question: after you format your new hard drive and it asks you to restart, you said we had to select the option to make it a "boot drive" right? so wouldn't my computer boot from the empty drive instead of my old drive with all the stuff in it? 3) Does this method copy windows files as well? as in; windows operating system, browser history, internet cookies, and itunes files, etc?

  • you did this on a lap top but what if i do my desktop, is it required to have an external hub to hold that hard drive or can i just connected inside the tower and do the same thing?

  • Haha your voice makes me thirsty... its sounds dry :S

    I don't mean any offence :)

    Thanks for this video,

    This was exactly what I'm looking for,

    I just purchased the Rocketfish enclosure as well.

    Thanks again!

  • Hi

    I followed this process and the first time it seemd find but i kept getting the BSoD, when i ran a hard drive test with Western Digital disk check it failed for too many bad sectors.

    I got a replacement drive through amazon it is a western digital 500gb Scorpio blue drive.

    again it seemed to be ok but then it started again, i keep getting error 51 in my event viewer. i am using a HP pavilion DV6119us laptop.

    I dont know what else to try i have checked and updated all drivers, BIOS etc.

    ideas?

  • thank you help me alot now i dont have to pay to do that 

  • Dude, excellent vid! Upgrading to 320gb very soon, thanx a bunch!

  • @DhD074 Thanks for the nice vid, I upgraded my laptop from 160GB to 400GB seamlessly. Much appreciated.

  • Very useful and a good job on the video. It gets the job done. i havent tried this project yet i am waiting for my enclosure to arrive in the mail.

    so sad that some individuals have to degenerate into foul and abusive language.

    my two cents worth anyway thanks for the video.

  • you did a good job better than many

  • what if you don't have access to an external enclosure? Can I just put the 2nd hd into my system as well do it that way? clone to the empty drive.

  • wow you suck ass, you know nothing

  • @bigjake52 Lol thanks, you Canadians always crack me up.

  • @DhDo74 Yea ok dumb American shit, Stop coming to canada then I hate your kind

  • @bigjake52 hahahahah I've only been to Canada a few times. I like it! I just don't see why you are so upset my man. If you don't like my video then simply don't watch it. Every Canadian I talk to has anger problems, why is that?

  • @DhDo74 because you amercans come to canada and rune it all, I hate people like you, and I am not frending you stupid old ass

  • @bigjake52 how's your canadian free shit health care? canada looks liek shit anyways, its not americans who fill it up and make it look like shit. its cuz you dumbshits just want to blame it on someone so you dont need to do anything but sit on your damn ass and watch fucking tv all day like the fat ass 12 year old you are. dont be talking shit about when your country needs our fucking military power to protect your pussy asses who will lose wars against 3rd world countries.

  • @integradude08 well we are the nicest country around you stupid shit, and who cares about helth care? I dont, We got no tv where I live, so why do I need to sit infront of one, I walk 2 km every day with my dog

    I'm not fat old man

  • @bigjake52 nicest country my ass. Iraq is a nicer country than shit canada. So lets say you're walking your dog and you get shot. and you dont give a fuck about health care and you end up dying because you're stupid. you're fat. i never said you were old cuz i said you're twelve years old. according to your ustream you're fatter than a bitch who eats mcdonalds all day long.

It is spelled "Language" You talk French because Canada is primarly French on the East side of the country, Are you a French Citizen? Were you born in France and have a French birth certificate?

  • @DhDo74 if I mean runescape I'd call it gayscape,

  • @bigjake52 lol good one Oh Canada! Ruin is spelled Ruin, not Rune.

  • @bigjake52 I think Integradude likes you too man.

  • So after the old disk is cloned, I can take out the old disk, just run the new disk and it would act EXACTLY the same as the old disk used to?

  • @AeonCommander Hell yeah man

  • @DhDo74 Fantastic. Thank you, man.

  • @DhDo74 Anything for you brotha

  • what operating system do you run in this video?

  • @bazucker In this video at the time I ran Vista.

  • Im planning on buying : 1 syba sy-cab-esa eSata to eSata cable and 2: a acomdata tango eSata portable enclosure.So first question : Is this all i'll need to exchange my laptop hard drive data (They're both sata) And my 2nd question is ( just to make sure) do i plug the cable into the computer by way of usb port ?( Meaning one end goes to enclosure and the other end to usb port on computer. (Haven't bought them yet just want to make sure I''m buying right stuff.)

  • im thinking of buying a 1 tb internal hdd how much would that cost?

  • it made my new 160 gb hd into a 39 gb partition

  • @imlost89 well why are you formatting your new one?

  • @DhDo74 im copying everything from the old hd to a new drive, but what i'm saying is it changed the size of the new drive to 39gb. i got it to be the right size and now windows blue screens when trying to boot :-/ run recovery console and it says one or more unrecoverable errors :-/

  • When it finishes cloning, my screen goes black what does that mean or do I just wait for it

  • Thanks for your guidance. I'll be using external drive to replace the internal drive. Then convert internal to storage. Cheerio

  • Can I clone the current drive in my laptop to one connected via a usb enclosure. I ask because I've read that you cannot:

    "When cloning to another internal hard drive, the process can be done within Windows. However, when cloning to an external drive, you need to have prepared an emergency boot disk within True Image and to have booted the notebook from it.

  • Do u have to have the new hardrive as a external one or can it be internal and still work

  • @courtleableu2 If your computer has multiple hard drive bays then yes you can use internal. If you use a laptop you will need to buy an enclosure for it to work.

  • Does it copy the windows program to or just the documents meaning games and stuff

  • @courtleableu2 it copies every single thing you have. No need to reinstall anything at all.

  • Does it matter if the new hard drive is External?

  • @builditfilmitM I don't think so. You will have to do an extra step. Once you do everything in this video you have to make your computer in BIOS run the external hard drive as the main hard drive

  • Okay it asks me if I want to delete all the partitions on my destination drive.Is it just talking about he partitions with nothing on them?Or will it delte my videos,music on the destination hard drive?

  • @jxsilicon9 Its asking you if you want to format your new drive, it doesn't know that your drive is brand new, it assumes you have stuff in your new drive. Since you have a new hard drive it doesnt matter what you select, but it doesn't make any sense to delete something that isn't there. It will not delete anything in your main hard drive though.

  • I have a 250gb that I want to put into my laptop.Will the clone delete everything already on that drive?I have a few things on it.

  • @jxsilicon9 No, what the program actually does is create exact same copy of your hard drive into another hard drive. So in the end you will have two hard drives that are exactly the same, except one has more space and the old one doesn't. Nothing gets deleted.

  • 1.Could I do this internally without an external enclosure for the new HD?

    2. After this cloning is done, I just replace the old hard drive in the case and boot?

    Thanks for the video.
