Vista x64, fully patched. Virtual PC 2007 (x64) , NOD32 AV

When I try to backup my user credentials (start, run, Control
keymgr.dll) I get as far as the Ctrl+Alt+Delete screen, then
immediately I am shown an error message : "A device attached to the
system is not functioning". There are no clues in the event logs, and
no clues anywhere else :-(

Any ideas?

Many thanks,

Jim
