I'm prompted for a lcoation (C:\X.crd) and I'm then prompted to press
Ctrt+Alt+Delete. I then enter a password.

I've then shown a screen "A device attached to your system is not
functioning".

I've tried backing up to different locations, but I always get the
same message.

Can anyone else get this to work?

Many thanks,

Jim

I've got the same problem (Vista Enterprise x86). In my case, it's been working for over a year (backing up the credentials to a second NTFS/SAS drive). All of a sudden, it quit working. And, just like you, the actual error message is bogus.

Looks like it's time to get Microsoft CSS to work the issue. Have you by chance opened a case yet?

Regards,

Stuart.
