    we cannot use the Shadow Copy Service or VSS for shadow copies after modifying an existing VM volume of SBS 2008. We used parition sofware from Easeus Parition Master v5.1.  I have attempted the registering and resgistering of system files, restarting services, deregistering and reregistering services, and still the shadow copy service does not work. Any ideas on how I can isolate and repair the cause of the problem? Things to look for?
