getting locking error when trying to copy database

Hi all...
I made a backup of our production database, and am trying to copy it over to
our test server.
About 3/4 into the way of the copy, I get an error message that reads:
cannot copy nmhsystem_013107: The process cannot access the file because
another process has locked a portion of the file.
I don't understand. This is a back-up... should I'd be clear of any
processes.
Any help would be appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!!
use filemon from sysinternals to see which process has opened a handle on
the file.
