You may also receive the
following error message when you try to run a backup of a SQL Server database:
Could not create component: x80040154
Check
registration of SQLVDI.DLL and value of IID
This
problem occurs when the backup program tries to use a Sqlvdi.dll file that has been
unregistered. Typically, the Sqlvdi.dll file can become unregistered when you uninstall
SQL Server Desktop Engine (also known as MSDE 2000) from a computer that is also running Microsoft SQL Server 2000.
To resolve this problem, re-register
the Sqlvdi.dll file.
To do so, follow these steps:
- Stop SQL Server.
- Click Start, click Run,
type Regsvr32 Path\SQLVDI.DLL in the
Open box, and then click OK. The default path of the Sqlvdi.dll file
is C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\COM.
- Restart
SQL Server.
Microsoft has
confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in
the "Applies to" section of this article.
