Recently upgraded to Windows Ultimate and want to use tape backup for
selected data backup (20 GB per tape). Since Vista does not support SCSI Tape
Backup, I did some more research and decided to install ntbackup. After
installing, the backup software sees the tape drive and interacts with it,
i.e. I can run the diagnostic tests and all steps are given a passing grade.
However, when I try to do a backup, I receive an error message --
MS_UpdateNtmsOmidInfo. Error reported: 8 -- which I don't understand. I tried
Google and a few other forums, including searches in this newsgroup, and
could not find anything that would work. It sounds like there may be a
Services setting that needs to be adjusted but I have no idea if (1) that's
the correct assessment OR (2) it's something else. I'm beginning to rule out
hardware and tape (since I have tried a number of different ones).
Would appreciate any help/direction/advice ... Thanks
