CAPI2 Error
- I get the following error in my application log 4 times a day. it seems to
correspond to my backups. they occur about 8-10 minutes apart twice a day.
(I do backups at that time twice a day)
I followed the instructions in KB article
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc734021(WS.10).aspx and verified
that the System Writer appears in the list.
What is the problem here and how can I fix it?
(I am running SBS2008 x64 as a guest OS on WIN2008 R2 with Hyper-v)
thanks

Hi biconix,
We understand the business continuity is important.
From the error message, the Cryptographic Services failed with specific API. In order to troubleshoot it, we may need to collect some vsstrace to analysis what cause the Cyptographic Services crashing in the issue. However, please understand it is not efficient for us to analysis the vsstrace file here in the forum, therefore I would suggest that you contact Microsoft Customer Support service to troubleshoot this issue efficiently. They are the best resource for this kind of issues.You may obtain the phone numbers for specific technology request please take a look at the web site listed below:

Hi biconix,
In order to narrow down the cause of the issue more efficiently, let us refer the following steps to perform a Clean Boot to see if the issue still continues.
Step 1: Perform a Clean Boot
1. Click "Start", go to "Run", and type "msconfig" in the open box to start the System Configuration Utility.
2. Click the "Services" tab, check the "Hide All Microsoft Services" box and click Disable All (if it is not gray).
3. Click the "Startup" tab, click "Disable All" and click "OK".
4. Restart your computer. When the "System Configuration Utility" window appears, please check the box and click "OK".
Meanwhile, please run the following command to dump the VSS writers information here for our reference.
Vssadmin list writers
Thanks for your time.
Best regards,
David Shen
