Hi all,

I've got a serious problem here. I've just tried to update my PC's 500 GB drive to a 1TB drive. The data I was going to copy with Acronis True Image 10 (which I've used in the past an never gave me any grief up to now).

I selected the source and target disks correctly. The I gave the go to the system, and the process started. Only, usually the system locks the partitions or something, then reboots the system to do the necessary disk cloning in some sort of DOS modus, and then returns to windows.
Now the system took ages to lock the system partitions. I got suspicious and cancelled the process.

Now I can't access the source drive any more!! AAaargh! I can still see both partitions on the disk via XP's disk management tool, but I see the drives have no drive letter and also don't show up in windows explorer. I'm pretty sure the data is still all there, after all, this was the source drive.
How can I 'unlock' these partitions again?

Thanks VERY much for any input you can provide!
