I'm not quite sure in what way you're correcting me there... just that 6.0 MP1 and MP2 are unsupported? (I didn't know that, and it's good info!)
 
As near as I can tell from that document and http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/290141.htm, NetBackup 5.1 media servers are still supported (in compatibility mode) under 6.5.x. Am I incorrect?

5.1 media servers are only supported if you're using disk.  If you're using tape, you must be at least at  6.0MP3.

You probably want your Windows media server at 6.5.2A, if you want it at 6.5 anything. (You are, of course, allowed to just leave it at 5.1,

From the compatibility technote (http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/264767.htm):

A NetBackup 6.5 master server will not support a NetBackup 6.0, 6.0 MP1, or 6.0 MP2 media server that has tape media configured. A change to correct this issue was made in the NetBackup 6.0 MP3 release and was carried forward to NetBackup 6.5. Therefore, Symantec will support 6.0 MP3 media servers or later with NetBackup 6.5 master servers.
