event viewer volsnap

I opened event viewer to see what was logged and found this volsnap-had a lot of errors. Problem is that I can't find out what it is. Thanks

VOLSNAP is the volume shadow copy service used for volume snapshots and other types of backups. What type of errors are you seeing in the log?

If you have XP and Vista on separate partitions, it's the major malfunction that wipes out Vista's System Restore points.

More like an incompatibility between XP volsnap.sys and Vista volsnap.sys such that XP volsnap.sys evaluates the Vista restore points taken by the Vista volsnap.sys as corrupted (and deletes them) when you boot XP. This will not be fixed.
