Hello everyone!

I keep getting a dialoge box (daily) telling me:

An error occurred when checking the status of the last automatic
backup:

The service did not respond to the start or control request in a
timely fashion. (0x8007041D)

Verify the status of your backup.

"OK, how do I verify the status of my last backup? When I close this
dialogue box I am immediatley met by another telling me:"

The backup application could not start due to an internal error:

The service did not respond to the start or control request in a
timely fashion. (0x8007041D)

Please check your system configuration and try again.

"How do I check my system configuration? And try what again?"

I am lost as to what this means. I have googled the erorr code and it
seems a lot to do with updates etc. I would appreciate some info
regarding this issue. It is linked (according to the title bar on the
dialogue box) with Windows Backip. I have automatic backup scheduled
weekly and have a partition on my hard drive that I use to save the
backup on. Is this a good idea?

I am running windows vista home premium(32 bit) on a dell desktop with
a large hard drive, 2GB RAM and E6400 processor.

Any ideas?
