Thank you for reply. But I am try already. I am made success media using 1 dvd 4g+1 dl dvd 8g.
But I am try install for new SSD. But, I was not success restored os.
So, Maybe Restore media need system patition?. (Original HDD have 3 hidden petitions.) ....
I don't know.

If you have successfully installed Windows 10 your existing system will be validated by Microsoft and you can install it again using a flash drive or DVD once you've made either of these.
If you are attempting to move to a SSD I would suggest copying over your existing installation to the SSD using tools supplied by the SSD manufacturer then replacing your existing HD with the SSD. If you install Windows 10 from scratch on the SSD it is possible that the digital fingerprint for your computer will not be validated by Microsoft due to the hardware change you have made and you might end up with a non-activated copy.

1. By making restore media, do you mean the "Recovery Drive?
2. What steps did you take to do this?
3. What was the error message?
