I've run into an interesting situation. Last night I set everything up so that I could transfer all of my data to a new hard drive, but this morning I realized that I needed to take care of some other things on my PC before I made the transfer. Perhaps the answer is staring me in the face, but how can I just normally boot Windows on my old drive? Clonezilla keeps intercepting the normal sequence. Any help would be appreciated.

What exactly do you mean when you say you have everything set up? I don't understand what the exact problem is. Normally you would start Clonezilla from a bootable USB stick, so if you are meant to do that just remove the USB stick to prevent your system starting from it. Or if you use a Clonezilla Server to boot from using PXE boot, just remove the network cable. Also, there should be a key you can press during startup, which puts you in the BIOS boot menu so you can select the boot device yourself. On HP systems that would be the F9 key. Some other systems use the DEL or ESC key, so look in the manual for the right key.

Hi. I have a similar issue. eVen if I had it on the USB, as the destination HD was not recognized, clonezilla seem to have " stayed" on the main HD. Now I cannot boot back in windows, even if I changed the bios sequence back to HDD.
How can I bypass clonezilla and boot windows off my HD?
Thanks

Confused... If you remove USB flash drive from your machine, it still boots in to Clonezilla live?
If so, I am afraid you have put Clonezilla live on your hard drive...

is there anyway to remove it? I bought a used laptop to create a bootable windows usb, and the 'repair' option doesn't help: it still boots back into clonezilla.
I can get it to load MS DOS and I can get to BIOS. and the Clonezilla option 'boot a preinstalled operating system' doesn't work either.
is there a way to 'get rid'clonezilla on my HD, safe from reinstalling windows and loosing my data?
thanks

yes, that is what it seems.
