SSD Drive (frickin hate computers!)

[foRUMS 4 punkdISCO]

Hi all

 

I thought about system IDs and stuff but, there are a truck load of video demo’s out there and no one mentions any issues with authorisation..  Im currently searching on this topic so I could be wrong..

 

Back soon  :(

My guess?  Its windows copy protection.  The 'system id' or whatever is changed by the change is system disk.  I seem to remember reading about this at some point.

Installed my SSD drive.  Mohsen mentioned how well the Samsung cloning software works, cloning the operating system drive.  For me, not so good:

 

1)      Took me 24 hours to get it to even work.  Solution was to run Norton and fix HD errors.  Worked first time after this so I guess there is a lesson there..

2)      So, the SSD drive is now a clone and boots off this fine.  All apps work etc BUT, no frickin internet!  Network issue is now been 24 hours also!

 

Symptoms are:

1)      Allocated IP address is 169.--  According to google, if this happens with Virgin Media it means my PC is not getting a IP address allocated correctly.  It should be 192.—

2)      Network status says: Not Connected

3)      Swapping back to the original HD and its fine

4)      So, only the clone has the network issue

 

Stuff Ive tried:

1)      ipconfig /release then renew

2)      Changed the MAC address just to try and kick it up the butt a little..

3)      IP and DNS addresses are on auto but tried setting them manually

4)      Updated BIOS< /o:p>

5)      Updated network card drivers

6)      Turned off anything Firewall/virus related

7)      Swapped out the network card just on the off change.

 

 

I appreciate this is a very long shot but anyone got any clues?  The BIG question to me is why should the clone drive be 100% working (bootable etc) but without network access?

 

I have Virgin Media coming over tomorrow but Im not holding out much hope.

 

Did I mention I frickin hate computers?
