Colorado 14GB Tape Backup (SN mx00401952

I am running this under Win 98SE, with Backup software ver. 8.1 and HP 14GB tapes with media monitor. Recent backup attempts have produced error messages:
(1)Error 0xAB11 The interface timed out during selection of the device.
(2) The backup device reported an unexpected error. Ref 07-0e-23-01-030c and subsequentltly Ref 07-0e-23-01-0001.
(3) Unrecoverable hardware Ref 07-12-2301-1502 and subsequently Ref 08-12-23-01-1502.
(4) Error occurred while writing the backup data. The device is not ready. (08-10-21-01-000A.
I cleaned the window inside the tapes and the mirror on the tapes with ethyl alcohol. This resulted in error messages to the effect that the media was not recognizable and thereafter that the tape backup device was not present (although Windows device manager identified it as present and working.
Have any of you experienced tany of these problems?
Thanks for your help.
