Thanks for your input Bill! Now that you mention it, there could
easily be other explanations for what I'm experiencing. For example,
remember what I said about Windows 7 dividing the hard drive into 2
partitions? If you do an installation of Windows 7 on an empty hard
drive (without multi booting), it will by default create 2 partitions:
the first one is the boot partition (about 100 MB) and the second one
takes up the rest of your drive.
When you said the partitions could actually be LARGER than the source
partitions, that got my attention. It is possible that my guess about
the smaller partition being exactly 100 MiB was wrong. The only reason
I tried to create partitions that were exactly the same size is that
Steven's document said the file geometry had to match exactly. If I
still have time, I will make partitions on the destination drive that
are slightly larger than the partitions on the source drive, then see
if files still get corrupted.
There could also be a number of other problems that I don't know about
(but others might). Given all the problems I've been having, I'm quite
impressed that you have the courage to actually use the source drive's
image. To be honest it would be much easier to simply do a clean
install of Windows! All this testing has set my work back by a week.
