    How were you backing it up?? Sounds like something was accessing a file that you were trying to back up. I would go to start>>run>>msconfig>>startup, and make sure most things are not set to start autmoatically. Then reboot, and run the backup again.

    I forget where to go in Vista actually those were directions for XP. Do a search for msconfig.
