Updated my wife's computer, new system has a RAID drive in it if that matters, Dell system running Windows 7 Pro, new install with all updates.
Any suggestion on where to look for additional information or what the problem is?
Error in event log
Backup job 1 on HUGHESHOMESRV did not succeed. Reason: ClientVssProblem, System.String[]
Edit:
Used vssadmin to delete the current shadow copies and ran a check disk on the drives. (did not help)
vssadmin list writers --- shows no errors
Edit 2:
Read where other backup software might be the problem so I uninstalled the Alien Spawn thingy that was on the system, no help. Don't see anything else, very short list of installed program so it is a pretty clean system.
Found the following errors in the log and tried following the links after them. No clue what the second ones setting are supposed to be but they look fine. Ran the Mr. Fix it on the first for what that was worth.
Volume Shadow Copy Service error: Unexpected error querying for the IVssWriterCallback interface. hr = 0x80070005, Access is denied.
. This is often caused by incorrect security settings in either the writer or requestor process.

Edit 3:
Full backup using the normal windows backup software worked fine, would think it uses the same shadow copy but what do I know...
