  • Restoring Windows 7 system image
Skip to end of metadata
Go to start of metadata

After getting in a new laptop, I wanted to restore the existing Windows 7 installation from my current laptop to the new one.

Booting with our bootable USB Windows 7 installer, and choose to Repair my system.

Windows found the correct system image on a external hard disk, so all looked fine - until the restore began:

Error: The parameter is incorrect
Code: 0x80070057

 

Bummer (sad)

 

It seems that the bootable Windows medium itself is the problem.

Right before the last step in the restore process, you should remove the USB stick.

The restore goes off OK then
