I am having trouble with my tapedrive/streamer but do not know if it
is a hardware or software problem. Before I do anything drastic, I
would like to try backing up files to a tape cassette using the
Windows software, but I have no idea how to set this up. Can anyone
help, please?

Many thanks

Just "Windows Backup Utility" (ntbackup.exe?), I think. I have found
an MS article about it, but haven`t installed it from the Win XP disk
yet, as one of the things I need to know first is : can it be used to
back up to a tapedrive?

Thanks for the response

Thank you for the tip. I have found an article which says that
Windows Backup Utility will save to a tapedrive, so, if tonight`s
backup fails again with my usual software, I shall install the Windows
software and try again. If that also fails, I shall know that it is
either the drive itself which is faulty (or needs a clean) or the
media.
