I doubt that the latest versions of Backup Exec are compatible with LTO-1 drives. Check the Hardware Compatibility List for the the same. What is the version of Backup Exec that you are using???
Following are the links for the HCL for 6 major version releases of Backup Exec;
http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH137050 : Backup Exec 2010|2010 R2|2010 R3 Hardware (HCL)
http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH62114 : Backup Exec 12.5 Hardware (HCL)
http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH55640 : Backup Exec 12.0 Hardware (HCL)
http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH46703 : Backup Exec 11d Hardware (HCL)
http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH46109 : Symantec Backup Exec for Windows Servers (tm) 10d (10.1) Hardware Compatibility
http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH46795 : Symantec Backup Exec for Windows Servers (tm) 9.x (9.0, 9.1) Hardware Compatibility List
LTO-1 drives may be supported with the older versions like BE 9.x, 10d, 11d. Please confirm the same from HCL.
