Migrate Easy :ERROR E000101F9 “ Cannot get write access to the hard disk drive(s).

Acronis Migrate Easy 7 build 619
Windows 98
Primary IDE Master Source drive 40GB
Secondary IDE Master Destination drive 80 GB
First time when I cloned the hard drive every thing went well but did not disconnect my old drive from the system and booted from the Secondary Master but could not get passed the log on screen. After that I have run into all sorts of problem. So I tried to do every thing all over again, Partitioned and formatted the destination drive 80Gb.
First I was getting the massage saying that my destination drive is smaller than the source drive, which is NOT. Then I could not even reach that stage…now I am getting ERROR E000101F9 “ Cannot get write access to the hard disk drive(s).
“Another Arconis application has write access to the hard disk drive(s). Only one Acronis application can have write access to the hard drive at a time”
I had a trial version of True Image 9 on my PC which I managed to remove with Windows Install Clean Up utility. I have re-installed Migrate Easy the error message still pop ups and if I do manage to pass through this screen, then my destination drive is smaller than the source drive so the operation cannot proceed.
Any help is appreciated
Thanks
