Alright I have used 3 different programs to do the cloning. The first one was the software that came with samsung (CD). Unfortunately I don't use cd roms anymore. So i went and downloaded the software. Installed and cloned. Reboot and forced the samsung to boot. Ended up getting an error. Wiped the samsung and used a different program. Cloned fine. Shut down, unplugged my Kingston. Turn on. Goes straight to BIOS (Asus Max. Hero VI). The samsung drive is the main boot and selected drive. Ok so I end up wiping it again and trying another program. Same thing. Boots right into BIOS.


Here is a picture of my disk management after cloning:

I can see that my Kingston is still the boot drive. I have no idea how to get my sammy to become that drive. I am out of solutions. Hopefully someone can help. Really avoiding on installing a fresh copy of windows.

I fixed it. I recloned it. Set it to active. Shut down comp. Unplugged Kingston. Plugged Sammy into Kingston's port. Rebooted with my windows 7 USB boot drive. Did a repair on drive. Booted up perfect.
