I'm trying to boot windows 7 from a USB enclosure with a SSD hard drive cloned from my operating system on it. I've got my boot order set in the bios with USB Device as being the only choice of boot item. And as it starts to boot the screen says "starting windows" and then it reboots in an endless loop of doing the same thing time and time again. The SSD drive has a clone of my operating system.
I can take the SSD drive out of the enclosure and hook it up to the internal sata cable in the computer and it will boot up and run fine all day long.
I've used 2 different programs to make the clone of the drive. Acronis True Image and AOMEI Backupper are their names.
Any ideas on where I'm going wrong?
