Please upload somewhere partition boot block (the very first block of partition that is expected to be Windows boot partition). I have attached the first block of the Windows partition. The file sda2 is from the new drive and sdb2, the old. I do not see any attachments, sorry.
My mistake. I've attached them now.
In both cases partition offset recorded in BPB is 2459648. This matches the original disk, but does not match new disk (according to fdsik output you provided). So what happens is, PBR reads data starting at offset 2459648 on new disk and tries to execute it. This likely does not have any valid code at all or at least not bootloader. At this point the only clean way to fix it is to boot from Windows media and perform boot recovery. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
