I'm Getting Errors Trying to Backup XP! HELP!!

koolx · Oct 23, 2014

I'm using Macrium Reflect to make a clone of my XP. But, I get an error ID: 0x8004230f. This error has something to do with Volume Shadow Copy, which is enabled. In Event Viewer, I get this error:

Event 12292
Source VSS

Volume Shadow Copy Service error: Error creating the Shadow Copy Provider COM class with CLSID {65ee1dba-8ff4-4a58-ac1c-3470ee2f376a} [0x80040154].

I also get:
Error 1060: "The specified service does not exist as an installed service."

Please someone help!! I want to back up XP badly!! I'd appreciate your help!!

Boot of a disk and clone the drive, doing it while Windows is running is not a good idea.

Clonezilla works well for this.

I have not tried to clone Windows from a running system in a long time, but from my memory I ended up with a corrupt image.

There are plenty of cloning toos that run of a boot drive, no need to try to do it from within Windows. Just make sure you clone the right drive to the right location or you'll end up wiping your existing disk. Backup before doing this is a good idea.
