Server 2003 R2 reporting multiple 12292 and 10 VSS errors

My server running Server 2003 R2 has been reporting multiple 12292 and 10 VSS errors when the UniTrends agent calls to the Shadow Volume Provider for a VSS Snapshot. The server has the latest updates including SP2.
Thus far I have:
•      Checked vss writers using the vssadmin list writers command : All writers were stable with no errors
•      Checked providers using the vssadmin list providers command: Only the Microsoft Software Shadow Copy Provider appears
•      Tried to access C:\ properties > Shadow Copies but the window froze. I rebooted the server and was able to access it.
•      Verified that the HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\swprv  parameter wasn't missing
Also reregistered the vss dlls using the following command:
cd /d %windir%\system32
net stop vss
net stop swprv
regsvr32 /s ole32.dll
regsvr32 /s oleaut32.dll
regsvr32 /s vss_ps.dll
vssvc /register
regsvr32 /s /i swprv.dll
regsvr32 /s /i eventcls.dll
regsvr32 /s es.dll
regsvr32 /s stdprov.dll
regsvr32 /s vssui.dll
regsvr32 /s msxml.dll
regsvr32 /s msxml3.dll
regsvr32 /s msxml4.dll
vssvc /register
net start swprv
net start vss

Do you recommend any other additional steps to diagnose and resolve the root issue?
Thank you for your assistance.

I found that after I reregistered the dlls for vss, I was able to complete various types of backups using the UniTrends backup agent with no errors.
