Important detail: TSM 5.2.2 does not support the 3582 libraries. You can use drivers form the 5.1.8 release instead. I'm not sure if this has the programmer's blessing but it work for me on Windows 2003. 2003 has another device driver layer than 2000 but I hope the steps below will help you anyway. You need to have the SAN set up (HBA and drivers etc.) correctly. You should see your drives and the changer in the device manager. Install device drivers for the drives from the FTP-site. You don't need to install the driver for the library. Install TSM 5.2.0 and update to 5.2.2. I installed the TSM device drivers as well. Downgrade to or install the device drivers from a late 5.1.* version. I used a patch for 5.1.8 and installed only the drivers during the setup. TSM could access the library and the drives afterwards.
