Compare the contents of /etc/conf/cf.d/mscsi with the actual scsi hardware configuration.
You should be getting some scsi information during POST.
Then either change the hardware to match the configuration, or run "mkdev tape" to add the tape. You will have to relink the kernel to if you have to add the tape, which also will entail a re-boot. The windows access could be NFS, or Samba, or Visionfs which came bundled with the OS.
