    I would use the task scheduler to delete any current backup schedules then try to configure it again.

    Logs comes very late in picture.

    "when i try to configure backup a get the error cannot configure backup schedule"  - Is this the exact error? or is it something like "An unknown problem is preventing the wizard from retrieving backup settings. Please try again. If this problem persists, contact the person or company who provides you with technical support."  ???

    Have you tried adding the new drive through wbadmin console?

    It is failing as it cannot create snapshot "VolumeShadowCopyServiceSnapshotCreationFailure (0x80780034)." If you try backup on old drives does that works?

    Ok. First thing you should test is c:120gb -> Properties ->Shadow copies tab -> Click create and check if it's successfully create a snapshot similarly on D:250gb -> Properties ->Shadow copies tab -> Click create and check if it's successfully create a snapshot.

    Post back the output of vssadmin list providers.

    That's where the problem is. Your post still answers half of what I asked for. What is the output of vssadmin list providers ?
