    imaging/backingup dual boot windows 10 and windows 11

    I am looking for a method that actually works.
    This would be a single drive with multiple partitions, like a 256GB split into two 128GB partition drives.
    I like to run both win10 & win11 on a single drive

    Also best method/software to restore onto larger drives?

    I have tried clonezilla, it always tends to lead to problems, only one of the two OS seem bootable, same results with windows backup.

    Just looking for a means of retaining a dual boot setup without a bunch of hassles afterwords getting it to work again.

    Anyone have hints/ideas to share?

      What cloning/imaging mode are you using with Clonezilla?
      Don't buy those $10 PSU "specials". They fail, and they have taken whole computers with them.

      My computer doubles as a space heater.

      Permanently Retired Systems:
      RIP Advantech UNO-3072LA (2008-2021) - Decommissioned and taken out of service permanently due to lack of software support for it. Not very likely to ever be recommissioned again.
      Asus Q550LF (Old main laptop, 2014-2022) - Decommissioned and stripped due to a myriad of problems, the main battery bloating being the final nail in the coffin.

        Just the default Beginner mode, then top choice savedisk
        I do the whole drive, but after a restore only one of the two OS are available for booting,
        both are there, all data is there

          You can try doing a repair with bcdedit, it should find both operating systems and repair the boot manager so both os are again available.

            Hello,

            this is a very strange Problem:

            Notebook hang instantly on Boot. BIOS is accesable.
            Windows: instant after showing "loading circle", even Windows Boot Stick hang instant (even without installed SSD/NVME )
            Linux: instantly (if Linux Boot in leagacy Mode with log messages: Machine Check exception after 0.25 sec)

            i have tried:
            - only one RAM Stick, another working RAM, both RAM channel
            - BIOS Flash to newest Version F.50, BIOS Reset
            - Memtest86 hang instant at Test 2
            - HP UEFI Diagnostic wont find...

            1) Error trying to enter the BIOS
            --> [F2] won't let me enter the BIOS. To enter the BIOS, I had to create a shortcut and then type C:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe /r /fw /t 1 in the destination. This forced it to restart and enter the BIOS.
            Once inside, I went to the BOOT menu, but, surprise, it wasn't there. I got the following message:

            BOOT PRIORITY ORDER (img-05)
            1- Windows Boot Manager
            2- SATA HDD
            3- NETWORK
            4- Debian

            2) Error trying to access the BOOT MENU
            --> I restarted the notebook and pressed [F10] but the BOOT...

            DRIVER_PNP_WATCHDOG error re. old drivers in Windows 11 install image
            by japlytic
            In a Beelink GTR mini PC, mine has an Intel AX200NGW WLAN module.

            Tried (only with keyboard/mouse connected):
            • BIOS + database update
            • Using latest Windows 11 image built with official image creation tool
            • Previous setup version for Windows 11 installer
            • Replacing SSD without a slow block (the previous SSD had a slow block with access time > 500 mS)
            • TPM reset (worked to the point where DRIVER_PNP_WATCHDOG error message is displayed briefly after the point of stalling)
            • Disabling power to WLAN and LAN modules in BIOS (Advanced > AMD PBS > PCI Express Configuration)

            Nintendo Switch Oled HEG-001: Second-Stage Boot Failure
            by privato89
            Hello everyone,

            I'm facing an issue with a HEG-001 motherboard that is unable to complete the Second-Stage Boot. I'd like to start directly with my conclusion, which is the decision to replace the MAX77621AEWI chip, and understand if it could be a correct evaluation.

            Before I dive into the process that led me to this decision, I want to mention that I have a fully equipped lab where I can perform any kind of tests.

            Let's begin:

            Following some guides online, I tried to understand how the Boot phase of the Nintendo Switch works, and what are the...
