Jack wants to install an external parallel-port tape backup drive to use the removable storage features of Windows XP Professional. The tape drive is included on the Hardware Compatibility List (HCL). He connects the tape drive to his computer and installs the manufacturer-provided drivers and software. When he attempts to create a media library for removable storage, the tape drive is not listed as an available library to select. How should you fix this issue?
  1. Run the Sigverif utility to verify the digital signer and version information for the device driver.
  2. Add Jack to the Local Backup Operator group on his computer.
  3. Disable Enhanced Parallel Port support (EPP support) in the system BIOS.
  4. Ensure that the Driver Signing Options are set to Warn or Prompt.
Explanation
Answer - C - To fix this issue, you should add Jack to the Local Backup Operator group on his computer.

Key Takeaway: The backup operators group has permission to access storage devices and to bypass file permissions to backup files. You should add Jack to this group so that he can inherit these permissions. Once the permissions are inherited, he will automatically gain access to all the storage devices.
