So lately I been getting this error below when it trys to do a backup, right now i am realyl stuck... I even changed the cleaning tape... Anyone have any idea?
Mods, please move to correct forum if this one is incorrect.

Label Library 00040 -- A tape read/write error has occurred. This is usually caused by dirty read/write heads in the tape drive. Clean the tape drive, and then try the job again. If the problem persists, try a different tape. You may also need to check for problems with cables, termination, or other hardware issues.
How old are your tapes? How many uses are on the tapes? Are you using a single tape over and over, or are you cycling them? Can you read from other tapes?

At first glance, this looks like a bad tape (or set of tapes) to me or worst case, a failing tape drive.
Well they are all brand new tapes, i had this error with older tapes also, so i swapped them with newer ones and still same error..

I haven't tried reading from the old tapes yet becuase i want to get this working.

Thanks
