Question : Ghost will not image the drive because it contains the OS or Paging file

I get the following error when trying to image XP Pro.

Error EC8F17B7: Cannot create recovery points for job: Drive Backup of  (C:\). Error E0BB001B: Cannot lock volume \\?\Volume{39438060-d64a-11da-85ca-806d6172696f}\ because it contains the OS or has an active paging file.
Details: The volume contains system or paging files.

That's the idea behind Ghost, it's suppose to be able to image the drive while it's running.  I have Ghost running on many machines without this problem.

Anyone have any ideas?

Maybe the following will help:

Also according to Ghost 12 Help, assume it applies to 14 as well.

Error: E0BB001B
Cannot lock volume \\volume_name because it contains the operating system or it has an active paging file.

Norton Ghost 12.0 can back up operating system partitions and other partitions that contain page files. This error is usually caused by a driver conflict with another application that might have control of the partition. Check for other applications that might have a lock on the drive and temporarily turn off any suspected conflicting drivers, and then run Norton Ghost 12.0 again to create the recovery point.

Hope that helps.

Cheers
