Unfortunately nothing can actually be typed, and all the computer can do in this state is beep at me when I press the keyboard. If I unplug my C drive and start my computer, then my monitor will just show a black screen with a blinking white cursor similar to the command prompt's located in the top left. I would assume I can boot from it, seeing how it has all the Windows files on it. The BIOS can't seem to detect it as a boot device. The problem is that while I can see the new drive (and its backup partition as well) in My Computer, I cannot select it while in the BIOS.

There were a few options I wasn't sure about, including whether or not I should allow it to resize the partitions automatically or not, so after having trouble the first time, I wiped the new drive and cloned it again using the other options. I cloned my drive using the Miray HDClone 4.3 free edition program. I figured I could buy a new HDD, clone my old one, and then simply select to boot from the new drive in the BIOS. Needless to say I have no experience with cloning / replacing drives.

I've added other drives, sure, but never used any other drive in all my computers to boot from. I have never once replaced this HDD as my main. I recently cloned my old 180 GB C drive to a new 2TB hybrid drive.
