backup doesn't work - write protected media

since monday I can't create a backup. The job is loading a while and then ejects the tape. If I restore from any tape, it works, but I can't erase, label or backup on any tape.
It says that my tape is write protected

I did the following things up to now:
- upgrade Veritas 9.1 with sp 5
- reboot of the server
- tried different tapes, also new ones
- repair of the db
- Windows Server 2003 SP2 is up-to-date
- check physical write protection
- media protection level is none

Has anybody an idea oder a solution? Thanks!

The backup with ntbackup doesn't work either. Now I'm changing the backupdrive (HP Ultrium 448). Maybe tomorrow evening I'll be wiser...
