IBM Ultrium III drive problem

  • Follow


Hi

I reinstalled sbs 2003 on dell server. Afterwards I asked windows to search 
for a driver automatically and install. The tape appeared fine in device 
manager as 'IBM Ultrium III Drive'. I then trying to be smart, went to dell 
site and downloaded the IBM Ultrium LTO3 driver and having installed it the 
problem began. The drive now appears as 'IBM ULTRIUM-TD3 SCSI Sequential 
Device' with a yellow exclamation sign. No matter what I do this does not 
get fixed. I tried uninstalling driver and rescanning for hardware, tried to 
update driver with another etc but no luck. What is the problem and how can 
I fix it?

Thanks

Regards

John,

Have you tried using the Driver Rollback function in the device Properties? 
Or tried updating the driver using the driver update and selecting the 
proper driver from the list of available drivers?  Just a couple of 
thoughts.
