Hi
Ever since I installed Backup exec v 8.5, I can't put my tapes into the backupdevice?
Everything worked just fine when I used NT backup. I've tried new tapes and cleaning tapes. But nothing seem to be working.
The tapes just keeps ejecting. Noerror message are to be find in event viewer or backup exec. The tape device is a Sony Sdt9000. The system is NT4 with sp6a.
Anyone who can help me out?

Regards

I'm not familiar with the NT version of BackupExec, but that sounds like it might be a problem with the drive itself. Try uninstalling BackupExec then see if the drive still kicks out the tapes. If it does, you have a hardware problem, and if it doesn't there's the small chance that reinstalling may fix the problem
