What is locking the partition

[Bjolen]

When making a image based BU of one whole partition with AcronisTI home2010 I

get message that the partition is locked . No other application is running

and I have closed all possible background processes (in the rigth lower

corner). The partition is still locked .

Can anyone give me a hint how I can find out what process is locking a

particular partition i Win XP SP3. I dont see it in the task manager

Thanks for any help.

Did you create a bootable CD disc and try it that way?

Hi Bjolen,

See if this applies to your situation:

Otherwise, you should ask at the Acronis True Image Home Forum -
