Re: Automatic Backups not working

I am using Windows XP Service Pack2.  The backup is the backup utility that
Microsoft supplies. The backup utility has a feature to select automatic
backups and to schedule these backups. I am backing up to a file on a second
disk.  Manual backups work OK.  Just that when I schedule automatic backups
the backups do not run.  They used to run prior to installing Norton 2007.  I
am not sure if I installed SP2 at this time or earlier so if SP2 was
installed at the time Norton 2007 was installed, then the source of the
problem could be SP2.
I hope this is enough information to help solve my problem.
Thank you.

I removed Norton 2007 but still have the problem.

You left out almost everything needed to give you some help.

Xp backup system is extremely limited. It does not backup every file
or configuration.
