Morning guys, sorry for me english!

I´m using Proxmox 4.2 and I have 4 VMs running

- 100 (Windows 2012 Server R2)
- 101 (Windows 2012 Server R2)
- 102 (Windows 2008 Server)
- 103 (Windows XP SP3)

When the backup job is running, the VM 103 show me an error and after that the VM crash. Everyday a have to start the VM.

Have you installed all virtio drivers and qemu-agent (+ enabled it for the machine)?

We're still using a few xp machines and have backed them up literally hundreds of times without any problem.
