NTBackup.exe and SP1a

[Madhiker]

We have 3 PCs that lockup when backing up data from Win XP
to writable CD using NTBackup.exe. This problem began as
soon as we applied XP SP1a. Any guesses?

Well.......

That's not a true statement. We had the ability to backup
to CD BEFORE we applied the service pack, now it freezes
on 3 different PCs. This is definitely SP related, but
thanks for the links.

Any other guesses?
