Backup Databases

I am running SQL2000 SP4 on a Win2000 server and getting following error whe
n
trying to perform a backup of a database within Enterprise Manager.
"Error 22272: Cannot load the DLL xpstart.dll, or one of the DLL's it
references. Reason 127(The specified procedure could not be found.). I have
looked any references to this error message, but yet to find anything on it.
Wondering if someone can assist me.
thanks,
JayHi
If backing up the datrabase from a different PC works, then I would think
re-installing the client tools may help solve this.

Open up Query Analyzer and use the T-SQL BACKUP command - does it work?
