Hi
Regarding this Event ID 36, you could refer to this thread
Shadow Copy issue.
Meanwhile, you can try the following:
1. Click the Start, input cmd in the search bar.
2. Right-click cmd, run it as Administrator.
3. Input the command: Chkdsk /f /r
Hope this helps.

I realized that I had never thanked you properly. Therefore: Thanks! Your instructions worked perfectly. I ended up allocating 20% and backup & restore functions perfectly!
The "gadget" DL's have been a helpful addition as well.
THANK YOU...
