Before you attempt anything, back any required data from the disk up to a separate location. If this fails, then your chance of cloning is practically nil.
Then make sure you have your windows product key and if possible any install media and keys for any other critical software - in case subsequently you decide to re-image (as Bobby had to). (If it has Win10 installed, check - Activation Settings - that it is activated with a digital licence - and preferably one associated with a Microsoft Account - as these, progressively, increase the likelihood of being able to re-image without licence problems).
Much of the rest of the write-up in the first (and possibly second) threads is probably relevant.
