Thanks everyone for all the help and suggestions! It worked! The original plan worked using Paragon to migrate to the new SSD. The issue I had was connecting the SSD to save the image there. Turns out the USB enclosure I used did not have enough power. I tried a self powered USB enclosure...

Ok thanks. What if I make an image of the windows drive (c:), it came with that and a d: which is empty. If I can save an image of c: onto the d: of the laptop, then swap in the ssd. Then use the recovery disk where I am asked to load an image.......then hopefully the USB enclosure will...

Hi, curious how you connected your SSD to your computer? I'm trying to do the same as you but can't get my SSD connected through USB Thanks

thanks, just tried, it says its for windows 7.....tried anyway but it won't run the setup, says my computer does not meet requirements.....i'm guessing they mean I don't have windows 7

thanks, yeah I tried an update but it says it is already the best driver available.

also the new SSD is in an external harddrive case for now, it does not show up in my computer, but shows up as a device. I cannot access it like a normal storage device. Is this normal?

thanks for the help, I tried paragon, it gets past the first stage, then comes up with an I/O error for disk 2...... not sure why, its a brand new Intel SSD

Hi, I just bought an Asus UX32VD with Windows 8 (64 bit) I bought a new SSD to install, but am having trouble figuring out how to get windows onto it. I tried creating the recovery disk on USB but that didn't work. I've read through a bunch of these forums, lots of info out there but I'm...
