Migrate Easy 7 and my tri-boot OS system

Thread needs solution

I have drive C - Windows XP
and Drive D to back up drive C using Migrate Easy

They are both 500 GB and I have been doing this for a long time, no problems.
Then I ADDED drive F with Vista and Drive G with Windows 7

When the computer boots Windows boot manager asks me which OS to use. That works fine.

THE PROBLEM: When I try to Backup drive C to drive D as I always have, things go as usual until Acronis reboots the system (as it always did) as part of the backup process.

It reboots TWICE within a couple minutes and then says "Backup complete (or successful, whatever) and then continues into my default OS, which is Drive C Windows XP, where, by the way Acronis runs from.
Now I know it didn't backup 500 GB in two minutes.

What to do????
Thanks, John

When you reboot, have the first or second drive either disabled or the data cable disconnected. The BIOS and Windows will get confused if it finds two drives marked as Active.
