Vista Backup Failure 0x80070057
I have been reading through several of the forums regarding this full PC backup error and cannot find a solution other than the one given below.

Except, I don't understand how to do this from the backup wizard. I don't see any options to modify. I have not been able to complete a single full PC backup yet. I am trying to backup the main hard drive to another newly formated internal hard drive (160Gb). Can someone point me in the right direction or explain to me how suggested solution works?

File Backup fails with the following error:

The parameter is incorrect. (0x80070057)
This error is caused by a bug in File Backup where if you don't back up at least one file during the full backup, every backup after that fails. The workaround is to go through the Backup wizard again and choose a new full file backup at the very end.
