Thanks Jill. It works. The two errors 0x81000029 and 0x80070001 are related
to the same problem. I used the instructions from the following link to solve
the problem. Within 5 minutes everything became just perfect. The link is:

Happy Backup everybody

Yes, the problem occurs because your OEM partition is marked as Active (you
can see this in Disk Management). I have requested a KB to walk customers
through the process of changing the Active partition to a different
partition.
Can you tell me more about your computer--is it brand new? Who made it? Did
you do a clean install or an upgrade?

Jason, we'd like to get some screenshots of your disk configuration (as
seen
from Disk Management). Can you email the screenshots to me? My email
address
works minus "online." Thanks!

When trying to backup my system I receive error 'Your backup
configuration
is not valid. Review your backup settings. (0x81000029)'.
Currently I'm trying to backup to an external HDD and I've accepted all
the
default settings except for the day/time which I changed Monday at 2:00
AM.
I've tried changing from the default values to see if the error is
being
thrown by one of the defaults with no luck.
I also checked to make sure there was enough room on the destination
disk
and there is.
My build is RTM Ultimate x64, I'm also attaching my logs from
'C:\Windows\Logs\WindowsBackup' as I noted in a post by another user
that
these logs were requested.
Thanks,
