I keep receiving the following error message:

A Shadow Copy could not be created for the following reason:

Mac,

Thank you for responding. Yes, I viewed those links prior to my posting
here, and they did not seems to address my specific issue. I contacted HP
(Mfg of system) and they suggest a complete recovery. I guess I'll have to
go that route.

Thanks anyway.
 
Here's a second to CrawfishJHughes suggestion. I followed his
suggestion--turned off System Restore (deleted about 20 restore points).
Then I tried to turn off the computer, but it hung up on this, too. So I
turned off the computer switch, and turned it back on. Everything rebooted
fine--I ran backup successfully, then turned system restore back on. Thanks
alot--wouldn't have thought to do this without the instructions.
