Hello,
I have 3 days trying to solve this problem. I want to clone my actual windows 7 with all the programs to the new laptop.
I bought the ASUS GL703VD-GC028T, cleaned the new HDD with DISKPART before cloning, cloned both partition of "Reserved for system" and C.
It loaded the system, but when I arrive to the log in page, the keyboard and mouse doesn't works. Also when I load on recovery mode and safe modes doesn't work.
Then I saw on internet that have to do the SYSPREP before cloning the disk, so that it's like the first time when the windows7 load on the new machine and so will automatically install the needed drivers for the new machine.
To do so, I connected the new cloned HDD to the old laptop, made the SYSPREP and shutdown. I then connected to the new laptop and the system started first the CHKDSK, then "Setup is updating registry settings","Setup is starting services","Setup is installing devices", and then showed me the window to select language and keyboard layout.
At this point, the keyboard and mouse doesn't work, neither USB ports. The same as before.
I tried also the System File Checker and changing the partition letters from REGEDIT that suggents on this post (https://superuser.com/questions/212759/cloned-windows-7-keyboard-doesnt-work) without success.
I then loaded the installation ISO of Windows 7 to an USB drive, and when load the installation, the keyboard and mouse doesn't works. Neither externally.
I tried with other 3 ISO versions, and with a modified one, works only the keyboard. I don't want to install windows from zero, so this thing don't know if it's really useful.
When I try with the installation of Windows 10 on the USB drive, the keyboard and mouse works!
I have been to 2 repair shops, but neither them know how to solve the problem.
If it's a problem of drivers, how can I install the drivers if when the windows7 is loaded, I cannot use keyboard, mouse or USB ports?
There is an other way?
I really don't understand what's the problem and how to solve it.
Don't tell me that it's not possible to install Windows 7 on this model because it's not supported, because not supported doesn't mean cannot install it and I saw other people installed Win7 on similar models, so it's not this the reason.

Do you have any idea? Thanks
