  1. Fatal VSS Errors on new Windows 10 Pro Machine


    Hello,I recently completed a Windows 10 Pro build and the backup software I'm using, Macrium Reflect X, is failing with a fatal error creating snapshot when I attempt to create an image of the system volume. I can successfully create images of other volumes on the machine without any errors. Macrium support suggested I try Windows backup to see if it works and it fails as well.The O/S is running on a Samsung SSD while the other volumes are mechanical hard drives.I've attached some screenshots and if you need any additional information, I can provide it.Thanks,Jon

    :)

    Fatal Error

    I've been trying to format my system but right after it finishes formatting I get a Fatal Error during the Windows installation process. That Fatal Error is a Data Error (cyclic redundancy check). I know that it's because of my hard drives, but how do I fix this issue? I have 2 Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 250GB SATA II Hard Drives in RAID 0. Any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. *Smile Fatal VSS Errors on new Windows 10 Pro Machine :)

    Failed to Create Volume Snapshot Macrium Error 0x8004230f VSS Error

    Hi, you might try this:
    Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy (VSS) Troubleshooting - Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy (VSS) Troubleshooting

    or the free cautious repair tool
    Tweaking.com - Windows Repair Free/Pro
    - observing the steps and using only the relevant repairs

    Otherwise I suggest- assuming your disk and file system are sound-
    an in-place upgrade repair install which keeps all progs, data and most settings

    You need an iso of the same base language and build- freely downloadable.

    Fatal VSS Errors on new Windows 10 Pro Machine

    Fatal Error

    I just got another Fatal Error during the Windows installation process with the second hard drive. So what should I do now, should I get a brand new hard drive and not set up a RAID 0 configuration again?

    What's the ODD?
