Problem with ASR backup

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

Hi, I have XP Pro on a PC with 1.3 Gig P4, 784 meg RAM
and a 40 and a 80 Gig hard drive..

I am trying to create a an Automated System Recover Boot Disk
but when I start the backup process in Windows Backup,
I get a box saying

"The Backup could not be completed due to an error"
"To see detailed information, click report.

The report says

Backup Status

Operation: Backup

Active backup destination: File

Media name: "ASR Recovery.bkf created 25/06/2005 at 5:09 PM"



Error returned while creating the volume shadow copy:80042301

Aborting Backup.

----------------------

The operation did not successfully complete.



Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong.



thanks

Thanks for your help, I did what your post recommended and
at first it did not work, then I put the services on Automatic,
rebooted, and it worked.

thanks
