Error: A source volume could not be locked (640)
Created: 30 Apr 2009
When trying to run Ghost32 on Windows 2003 server to create an image from the C drive to another drive even if the other drive is internal or external (such like USB HDD), you will get the following error message:
Error: A source volume could not be locked (640)
That's because Ghost is not designed to create a hot images from server OS.
