Back up Configuration is not valid - error 0x81000029

Hi,

I have Vista 32 bit Home Prem and am trying to change the settings on the Backup program. It was working fine up until 3 weeks ago, when my external h/d was accidentally dropped, then the backups failed from then on. I now have a brand new external h/d.

The program detects the location of the h/d just fine, however when I get to the screen asking which disks to backup, the program is not detecting the C & D Disks. It says Unknown (C) Missing, total size 0 bytes; same for the D Drive.

The program allows me to continue with the setting changes and I get all the way to the end and I get this error message:

Back up Configuration is not valid - error 0x81000029.

I've attached images of the screens with the error message.

I'm growing very frustrated by all of this as I REALLY need to back up my data!

Thanks,

Colleen
