Default Backup fails with "parameter is incorrect Ox80070057"

I have never been able to backup this Vista PC (Dell Inspiron E1505) to DVD
using Windows backup and Restore. Each attempt fails after a few minutes
with an error message that reads "the parameter is incorrect Ox80070057". I
have tried multiple blank DVDs and enabling and starting the Windows Shadow
Copy service (a suggestion seen on this forum). Has anyone experienced this
and better yet know of a solution? I have found nothing else on the
Communities posts, the MS Knowledge base or in general web searches.

Maybe it's just time that you look into other backup software. If
you've been following the Vista groups, you already have seen a
bazillion posts about Acronis True Image.

You have to pay for it, but it works. And it is the best overall
choice for those who want to make backups and/or clones of their
system disks.
