You can use dd, ddrescue, clonezilla (use full dd mode not partclone), the free version of hddsuperclone, or dd for windows to clone in this simple case and there are a number of rescue disks or linux live CD's that have some or all of those tools on them.

Typically you either clone your drives in the wrong direction or you overwrite your main system. Always remember that anytime you clone, you are probably one typo or wrong click from disaster. You may need to recover the partition table and mbr before you can do that.Ĭlone your system drive (no mistakes this time!) before you try any repairs. If it is, you may be able to restore from F: onto D: by booting F. So the question is, is E: an undamaged partition from your system or is it part of the client's 2nd partition. You selected the wrong drive or you selected the drive or a partition instead of a file on it. You selected the wrong output target for your copy operation. Blue screening didn't overwrite your drive, overwriting your system drive while the system was using it caused the blue screen.
