This is a little misleading because it does not backup anything. Basically .02 seconds and it fails with this error hresult 0x80042318. I'm kind of a newb to this particular software. Does anyone know where i would find a list of errors? or maybe why it doesn't just tell me what is wrong?

Whats the rest of the error? Did you have a chance to look into the logs?
My educated guess would be that you are having this issue on VSS snapshot creation.
Please edit the plan and check these two options: Force using VSS and Use system VSS provider.
After that please try re-registering VSS core components following these instructions:
1) Create new text document at any place you want
2) Paste following code into it:
@echo off
net session >nul 2>&1
if %errorLevel% NEQ 0 (
echo Permissions are insufficient
echo Make sure to run this script with administrator privileges
set /p=Press ENTER to close
exit /b 1
)
REM echo on
REM enable string above for debugging only
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
3) Please change the file extension from .txt to .bat
4) Execute this bat file and run the backup plan again.
I just enabled vss like you said to do. restarted vss services and it all ran just fine. I will find out if it runs on its own tonight. I had asked in the email you sent to me about running through the rest of the steps that you said if it had failed. I'm very pleased with the quick, courteous and very knowledgeable responses. You don't see a lot of that these days.
