HP StorageWorks Ultrium 1760 Tape Drive on Windows Server 2003 Small Business

Hello.

I am trying to configure the tape drive on a Hp Proliant ML350 G4 server, that is running Windows server 2003 Small Business. It is not working, keeps asking for drivers even when I install provided drivers. So my question is, is this tape drive compatible with the OS and if not, is there a work around? Urgently needed!

Make sure your OS revision is R2 or SP2 or newer.

What driver are you installing?
What HBA are you connecting this drive to?
If the flop doesn't fit... go allin!!!
