It didn't work. I get to the "Repair your computer" option, but I get this: Windows failed to start. A recent hardware of software change might be the cause. To fix the problem..." then it gives me instruction on using a Windows installation disc (which wasn't included with my computer). It also says the boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible.
I swapped hard drives so I cloned the original to the new drive (using Seagate DiscWizard). Windows runs ok on the new drive and the Recovery partition is there (same as on the old drive).
