Problem Cloning to Intel X25-M SSD

I am trying to clone a hard drive to an 80 GB (usable 75 GB) Intel X25-M SSD which I am doing by following the tutorial:

How to Clone a Laptop Hard Drive with Acronis True Image

and doing the "reverse clone" by putting the SSD in the laptop and the hardrive in an external USB enclosure and by having the bootable version of Acronis TrueImage Home 2009 (latest update) on the DVD drive.

I am using the Thinkpad X200s laptop with the latest chipset and the Intel storage matrix is installed on the original hard drive which is running Vista Business x86.

Everything works fine except when I reboot it gets as far as the signon screen but only shows the password signon and not the fingerprint signon. The bluetooth mouse works but not the trackpoint nor the keyboard.

It does not work in "safe mode" either.

Nor does it work when I try to change the BIOS from eSATA AHCI to compatibility mode.

The hard drive has only about 50 GB used and the SSD has a usable capacity of 75 GB.

I cloned it a second time with the same results.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

TIA
