DeviceIoControl(FSCT_LOCK_VOLUME) Failed!

 

Device: [0:1:0] TSST corp CDDVDW TS- H653Z 4403 (E:) (ATAPI)

 

Unable to unlock volume for exclusive access.

 

Reason: Access is denied.

 

Hint: You've got another program running that's using the drive, close it and then click'Try Again'.

 

 

I am running Windows Vista 64 bit on a Intel Core 2 Quad core. There are no programs open using the drive in question. I installed the program and I run it as administrator. Does any one know the solution to this error message? I'm a newb and know no reason for it to be doing this. Thanks!

It's in the FAQ how to find which program is holding your drive, but since you're using Vista it's probably the sidebar.

I tried the instructions in the FAQ you provided but I couldn't get Process Explorer started up. I then tried Unlocker and my system slowed down to a snails pace. I thought hey, I'm going to just restore my system to yesterday cuz I didn't like how it was acting. I disabled the sidebar and I have closed all programs but I still get the same results. Can you provide any other advice.?
