In a new Vista setup, I am trying to arrange for backups to a 2TB network
drive. The network drive is visible and can be written to and read from in Explorer. However, when trying to set up the Backup, and browse to a directory, I get the error message: ... cannot create a file when that file already exists (error 0x800700B7). When I type a non-existing directory in the hope that will be automatically created, I get the error message: ... cannot find the file specified error (0x80070002). Either way fails. What to do?

Hey,
I am having the same issue. It says the file already exist. What did you end \up doing to remedy the situation?

I chickened out and used a 3d party program (backup4all v.3). Very flexible.
