I get the error "4mm DDS does not contain archive media" in my bakup every night.
I'm just using ntbackup and the error occurs when running as a scheduled task or manually.
The tape drive is an HP Surestore DAT40.
I've seen a few newsgroup articles and Q articles regarding this problem already. They suggest an updated version of 4mmdat.sys or SP2.
I have applied SP3 which updated this file to an even later version than these articles mention - still to no avail.
I'm prepared to believe it is a hardware issue, but just wondered if anyone had come across a similar issue - even a solution!
