I just got a new Fujistu 500gb drive to replace a failing 320gb drive in my x61s. I used Acronis Home to clone the drive via a USB enclosure. When I put the new drive into the computer and started up, the bios found it, but then nothing happened. All I got was a cursor blinking in the upper left corner after the bios startup and bios security sign-on. I tried using the rescue function of a Windows install CD, but it couldn't see the new drive.

The new drive seems to otherwise work. When I boot with the old drive and put the new drive in the USB enclosure, I can see all the files.

I have the feeling I'm missing something obvious.  Any suggestions?
