ChuckS Posted August 7, 2002 Report Share Posted August 7, 2002 It almost sounds as if somehow the tape drive is being put to "sleep" like a hard drive. Sounds bizarre, but that's the only thing that makes any immediate sense. Retrospect is dependent on the drive to report whether or not a tape is present. If the drive reports a zero state for the presence of a tape, Retrospect has no choice but to accept that. What operating system is this? A third-party driver (or perhaps even a corrupt default Microsoft driver) being loaded for the tape drive might be interfering with Retrospect's operation somehow.
