Hi all, hope someone can assist.
Just had a new ROG VI HERO replacement motherboard arrive today after the temporary Gigabyte Z87MX-D3H would not do x8 x8 Crossfire. So that went RMA. I need to run the existing install of Windows 7 (from the Gigabyte) on the SSD Drive on the new ROG VI HERO motherboard.
But...(My bad) Prior to replacing the Mo-bo, I dodged backing-up my SSD (which has Windows 7 x64) which has all my files and passwords and everything and for all my games and software in the four main online game providers. And I need to RECOVER IT. It took me hundreds of hours to get everything right on the drive (including 50 hours trying to get games like GTA IV working perfect), and then I discovered the Crossfire did not work via the Gigabyte x8 slot. That board only worked in non-Crossfire mode (Graphics card test galore).
Both AMD Sapphire graphics cards and Bridge and PSU worked great on my Haswell i7 rig in Crossfire last month.
The issues is, I know there are command prompts to FIX BOOT-UP ON A NEW MOTHERBOARD after the FIX BOOT option in REPAIR WINDOWS, but I don`t know how EXACTLY to do it.
Its something that includes doing something like this;-
.......... "
dism /image:*D 😕 /add-driver:e:\ /recurse" * (The star is to dodge command turning into a smiley).
But I want to get COMMAND PROMPT CORRECT. EXACTLY RIGHT. So thought I would ask here?
😮I tried some command prompt things, but all I get is `the command is not recognised` or something similar.
Other Specs are;-
Drive is a Samsung Pro SSD
DVD/Disc Drive is a Panasonic Blu-Ray Drive.
Intel i5 4570S
8Gb (2x4Gb) 2133 A-Data RAM
700W Platinum PSU.
1Tb Games Drive.
Any Command Prompt people out there?
🙂The nearset thing I can find to what I am trying to do (get Windows 7 to run on a new motherboard without a full re-install) is this;-
