I just reinstalled Windows 7. I am not receiving the following error when I try to run backup: A volume Shadow Copy Service operation failed. Please check "VSS" and "SPP" application event logs for more information. (0x807800A1) Additional Information: The writer experienced a non-transient error. If the backup process is retried, the error is likely to reoccur.
