Backup Suddenly Failing With Directory No Found/Accessable?

Hi,

I have a client running Backup Exec 11d, which has been working fine for the past couple of months. However, suddenly over the weekend the backup has been failing with error: "Directory D:\ was not found, or could not be accessed." even though I can access the drives/directories manually while backup is running.

It's currently giving this error on the C: D: & G: drives, and giving an error about the VSS not having enough space, even though there is 7gb free on the C: drive, 154gb free on D:, and 60gb free on G:. I've also tested all of the resource credentials, and all pass successfully, so its not failing due to credential issues. I'm unsure what else would be causing it to fail?

Log errors:

Backup- C: OSDirectory C:\ was not found, or could not be accessed.
None of the files or subdirectories contained within will be backed up.
V-79-57344-65033 - Directory not found. Cannot backup directory \System Volume Information and its subdirectories.
