I wanted to change the hard disk of my computer to SSD and I made a cloned image of the pc, but afterwards when trying to startup the pc there was only a black screen with the following text:
Boot Device Not Found
Please install an operating system on your hard disk.
Hard Disk - (3F0)
F2 System Diagnostics
For more information' please visit: www.hp.com/go/techcenter/startup
I tried running the system diagnostics, it showed multiple things:
When running the memory test it showed the message:
Memory Quick Check : Passed
When running the hard drive check it displayed the message:
Testing Drive: 1
Smart check : PASSED
Short DST : FAILED
FAILURE ID : 6CXFJC-90V8G2-MFPURF-60RA03
PRODUCT ID : IKU37UA#ABA
HARD DRIVE 1
Moreover, I took out the computer hard disk, checked it on a different device and it showed that it was now empty and the information that was supposed to be saved on the SSD disk was also was gone. So I lost the information on the hard disk and the information that I copied from it to the SSD disk didn't save either.
To make the clone image of the hard disk I used the program: AOMEI.Partition.Assistant.10
And after using the program all of these issues appeared.
I request assistance with the issue, and hope that is can be somehow resolved.
