Have you already attempted to follow instructions on that technote? It looks extensive, but might have a solution for you in it. Let us know if you have any difficulties with that article.

I've checked pretty much all that but that artical isn't for Backup Exec 2012.

All the credentials have been checked, re-entered, all services working, no remote server involved, its a fresh install of SBS2011 (was a migration) and Symantec and no antivirus on yet.

Please check if your account has rights in the database instances. This ist not automaticaly done if you use a another account than "Domain\Administrator" To check if it is the problem you can grant dbo-Rights to the account in the instance. You can grant this right over the SQL Management Studio.
If this was helpful please mark this as solution.

Hello  

Run vssadmin list providers and post the results. 

also do you have any Windows Event Viewer errors?

Make sure you have installed all the Live updates.

Some of the VSS writers have failed and its not service packed so going to run a load of updates and reboot and try again.
