Ghost 12 Unable to Create Recovery Points

My Ghost v.12 backup job will suddenly not run. I'm running XP Pro, SP3. My drive configuration is C:, D: , E: (paging file, etc.) and Archive (location of Ghost recovery points). Ghost should be backing up my C: and D: drives to Archive, but instead gives this error:

 

11-30-08 0419 Automatic
Error EC8F17B7: Cannot create recovery points for job: Tom Daily Backup. Error E7C3000F: Device \\.\SymantecSnapshot0 cannot read 8192 sectors starting at LBA 6205768. Error EBAB03F1: Data error (cyclic redundancy check).
Details: 0xE7C3000F
Source: Norton Ghost


 

I tried to manually initiate the same backup, but got the same error, except this time the LBA was different. A manual backup of D: is successful, so apparently the problem is with C: I ran Seagate tools on the C: drive and it fixed a few LBA, then ran CHKDSK /R on the same drive. Another attempt to manually backup C: failed. I don't seem to be having a problem using the computer.

 

Any ideas on what to do next would be appreciated. I've been a Ghost user for years and have not had any problems.

 

Thanks,

Tom

The hard drive was giving errors using Chkdsk and when I ran Seagate SeaTools, it reported corrupt LBAs. Then I got a SMART warning and sure enough, the drive failed.
