BE2010 on W2k8R2 64bits "VFF Open Failure. This can be caused by low memory or disk resources"

Hello, On a Windows 2008 R2 (64bits) server, with BE2010 installed (fully patched) we (sometimes) receive the following errors and the backup fails on the GRT backup of our Exchange 2007 Sp1 server...

    Update: The backup succeeded last night withouth problems, after changing:

     Key : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\VirtFile
Value: VFF Extended Timeout
Type: DWORD
I set the value to 240.

    I also excluded the BE processes from the real time virusscan.

    However, I'll be watching the backup closely for the next days since it sometimes runs with no problems, and sometimes fails... :P

    Regards,
    Jasper
