This may be due to some drivers not being installed in the right directory or it can also be due to the new version of Backup Exec. What you need to do is:

1.    Click start icon then click Run

2.    A window will appear, and then type regedit

3.    Look for these keys

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SYSTEM -> CurrentControlSet -> Services ->VirtFile

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> Microsoft -> Windows -> CurrentVersion -> DIFx

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> Microsoft -> Windows -> CurrentVersion -> DIFxApp

4.    Make a back up by clicking File then click the tab Export

5.    Click select all then save in format of .reg

6.    Remove/Delete the keys you found previously

7.    Restart application

8.    Install the needed drivers for Windows
