Hi Guys

I'm running NT backup on my Win2k Proliant server and I'm getting the below error message:
Error:: The device reported an error on a request to write data to media.
Error:: Bad Data.

Since then I can not get the server to "talk" to the tape.
In Computer Management - it still reports a tape as being loaded even when I have ejected it.

Has anyone come across this before? any idea's I'll be greatful.
