Insyde bios

[Stian1979]

My old HP is failing and about time to change to another laptop and I'm honestly quite happy with my current install.
Now the new laptop don't have SATA so I need to move on the PCIe and i bought an casing for PCIe and simply dd the partition table of my old one over to this trough USB.
Dont look like it wants to boot once the PCIe is inserted into its new home.

Odds are your old storage uses legacy/MBR partitioning, while your new laptop doesn't support it. It's possible your new laptop will support it, only after a UEFI firmware (BIOS) setup change, officially termed "CSM support" enabled (Compatibility Support Module), while the UEFI BIOS may call it something else.

There are alternate BIOS like rEFI for example however, I'd recommend that you stick with your OEMS provided bios flash. You should always check the the support page of the veneer for your new machine. If your still able to access the new machines OEMs web site and use the new machines latest BIO which should be accessible on the OEMs support website. You don't need to have Windows to burn the BIOs ROM flash image onto a fat32 formatted USB flash device, You can then boot into the one time boot menu menu which should then allow you to down load the latest version of the bios.

For me it''s f10 to get into the alternate boot options menu and select the utilities and I'd select flash bios option.
