System Image Backup fails
In the past, system image backups from my Toshiba laptop to an external HD worked, but now I get the error displayed in the JPG attached in this post.
I have done the CHKDSK/R on my hard drive but the backup still fails. I even tried a different external hard drive, but the results are the same. It fails after it is running the backup for a few minutes.
Can anyone suggest a solution? Thanks.

I have two recommendations:
1.) Something like this happened to me a couple of times on Win7. Try treeing down and opening EVERYTHING in the navigation pane, and see if you accidentally dragged and dropped a folder or drive into another. Specially look for the drive for your backups somewhere on the C: (system) drive. I causes a link that tries to backup your backup drive, screwing everything up.
2.) Try using
Macrium Reflect.

I don't understand what you mean by, 'treeing down'.
The backup does find my external hard drive and begins the backup, but then it fails.

Installed Macrium Reflect and ran backup. It failed because of the I/O device error.
I hope I don't have any problems with the system in the near future. BTW, I do the updates from Microsoft daily.
