Default MS_UpdateNtmsOmidInfo error message using ntbackup

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

Would someone be able to give me some guidance here. I'm not technical
enough to know where to begin. Thanks in advance ...
