Catastrophic failure 0x8000FFFF, possibly caused by running Tweaking.com

Boggin:
The blue Online link I was referring to is what you get when you highlight an error in Event Viewer - apologies - was thinking you'd obtained the error from Event Viewer.

sptilton:
The error boxes in the attachments of post one popped up when I tried to do a Backup or System restore. I am not sure where they came from.  I did look in the Event Viewer and check the blue links. The links said:

"Results for: Microsoft Product: Windows Operating System; Version:
6.0.6002.18005; Event ID: 12349; Event Source: VSS;

No results were found for your query"

The Event ID was different for each error, but otherwise the statements were the same.
There is a summary of Event Viewer results in the attachment to post three (Backup_Restore_Errors.txt).

Boggin:
After re-reading that attachment, this article could help should the problem reoccur https://www.safebackup.com/faq/content/5/117/en/volume-shadow-copy-service-vss-troubleshooting.html

sptilton:
Thanks for the article. If the problem occurs again I will try those techniques. At this time, I do not want to try to recreate the problem to test fixes.  The repair section of the Windows install CD did get things back to normal.  However, it would be nice to know what caused the problems.

Shane:
The next time you get a blue screen use the WhoCrashed program
http://www.resplendence.com/download/whocrashedSetup.exe

It will tell you what most likely caused the blue screen and that can point us in the right direction :wink:
