Possible problem with tape drive?

[Jo]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsnt.setup (More info?)

I'm getting this error message every 2 seconds in my system log, I've
had no luck using google to find information - if anyone could give me
a clue on the cause, I'd be most greatful.

The server is an NT4 SP6 IBM netfinity 2000 with a Seagate travan tape
drive.
I am getting occasional read/write errors from backup exec, but only
every few days, while the error below is constant.

Thanks

Jo
