Backup Exec 11d will not backup my files.

Hello.
 
I am having several problems with Backup Exec 11d.  The most urgent is that nothing on my harddisks is being backed up.
 
I have installed all the latest updates and patches through Liveupdate.
 
If I select a full backup then the total size once completed is about 3GB.  When looking at the files only the databases are being backed up. 
 
If I alter my selection to only backup one of my harddisks then the backup is over in about 10 seconds.  The total size is something like 2042 bytes.  When I check the file it has only backed up the temp directory, just the directoy no files.  Nothing else.  Essentially it has backed up nothing.
 
This happens regardless of which drive I select (c:, n:, or x:)  They are all local drives, not mapped, not removable.
 
The backup log and event viewer have no errors at all.
 
I am running Windows Small Business Server 2003 R2.
 
The backupexec is a trial version.  Approval to purchase the full version has been granted but only if we can get it to actually work.
 
Does anyone have any ideas?
