[QUOTE="roger_m, post: 1075312, member: 31436"] Except for some vary rare cases, you don't specifically need to use backup software that has the option to restore to dissimilar hardware. Since Vista, Windows had been smart enough to recognise when it's running on different hardware and on the first boot, it will remove drivers for hardware that is not present on the new system, and try to install drivers for devices that were not on the old system. When I buy a new computer, I either put the SSD from my old computer in the new one, or clone it to the new SSD. For cloning drives, I've recently started using Hasleo Disk Clone. It's free and it includes the option to create bootable USB media. I was using bootable media created with AOMEI Backupper Pro. But I discovered it was not cloning the recovery partition, whereas Hasleo does. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.easyuefi.com/disk-clone/disk-clone-home.html[/URL] [/QUOTE]
