I can't backup System State, Backup is starting, waiting 15 minutes and failed.
Error message point to VSS problem, I did KB940032, KB940184, KB975928. But nothing changes, I still have error in backup.
From VSS trace I filtered specific errors

From searching Microsoft I decoded errors to:
VSS_S_ASYNC_PENDING 0x00042309 The asynchronous operation is pending.
VSS_S_ASYNC_FINISHED 0x0004230A The asynchronous operation has completed.
VSS_E_WRITER_NOT_RESPONDING 0x80042319 A writer did not respond to a GatherWriterStatus call. The writer may either have terminated or it may be stuck.
