I tried to create a restore point prior to installing a new program, and got the following error:-

the shadow copy provider had an unexpected error while trying to process the specified operation 0x8004230 Please Try Again.

I tried again, Googled the error, and got instructions on how to restart the Volume Shadow Copy service. Did that, tried again, same result. And on further investigation, I have no system restore copies at all.

I've looked at the instructions on TSG here

and checked all the services mentioned appear to be running correctly. viz

Volume Shadow Copy
Multimedia Class Scheduler
Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
DCOM Server Process Launcher
Plug and Play

Where do I go from here please?
