This was it, VSS service was set to Manual and not running. I've set it to 
Auto, is it right thing to do?

It's NTFS. I do not understand why I've never encountered this problem before. 
The user told me he did not change any defaults while installing WinXP. 
Perhaps, SP3 had the defaults changed for VSS service. I am not an expert in 
Windows administration I should admit...
