I recently cloned a working laptop's 250 gb hdd (of which 30 gb is used) onto my external 750 gb hdd using Clonezilla. After having issues with cloning a large drive to a smaller drive, I think I cloned only one partition (the larger one with files) from my ext hdd to another OS-corrupted laptop. I believe the issue I have was that one of the partitions (with boot info) wasn't cloned over from my ext hdd to broken laptop.
Unfortunately, this laptop now doesn't boot properly. It boots into bios screen, but that's it. It will continue restarting. I can't even boot into Hiren's or Clonezilla. Please help me diagnose and fix the issue.

Thanks Folks!
