Hi

After deploying an image on another computer of the same hardware configuration running windows 200 pro, I am unable to boot up the cloned machine. I recieve the stop error message of
INVALID_BOOT_DEVIC
at the system start up. I am loading no SCSI or RAID hard drive. It is just exact the same computer that I made image of. Why is that? I could not get any help from Microsoft's articles. Any help will be greatly appreciated

Thanks
Arya
 
There are many reason why you might get the Stop 0x7b Inaccessible boot
device. You have stated that you're booting the cloned machine then you
state that it's "exact the same computer." Are we talking about two
machines or one machine?
