For the past couple of days my verify is failing everyday, the tapes are older but I have tried a much newer one and that has had no effect.
- tape drive was cleaned
- server will be rebooted tonight (I doubt it will help).
here are the errors:
From the backup log:

if anyone has any ideas I'd greatly appreciate any help you can give me. I cannot upgrade at the moment due to financial reasons so I am stuck using 10.0 rev5484 which has given me nearly 0 problems in 5 years of owning BE.
