Device Driver Installation

I am trying to install Measurement Studio to develop a new app for work. However when I was installing it the installer required for device driver and I already download it and extract it.
The installer keep giving me the "The specified folder does not contain the correct volume" error. Where ever I change my path it keep showing the same error. So what's the exact path for the folder? or is there any mistakes I made while installing?
 Or can anyone just walk me through the correct way to install..? Because I am really confused and lost.
I was using the Visual Studio Express 2012 and I download Measurement Studio 2013 and Device Driver Augest 2013 as it required.
Please let me know if you need any futher information.

Hi cocohot,
Take a look at this Knowledge Base article that explains in more detail what support Measurement Studio has for Visual Studio Express.
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/3EA27E75A342A9EF8625723B007343ED?OpenDocument
It also gives you some good next steps that you'll need in order to manually add files for Measurement Studio.
Hope this helps.

  • Multiple USB Device Driver Installations Failing

    Windows 7 64 Bit  / MSI P965 Platinum Mother Board 
    I have three USB driver installations failing. I believe this is related to ' USB', because installations of other software unrelated to USB devices install just fine. Might it be a Windows Installer Service, appears to be running fine?
    Failing Device Driver Installations;
    1) IOGEAR USB 3 PCIe card
    Problem: The installer runs part way through the "Preparing to install' process and goes into limbo. I have tried three USB cards by different manufacturers and get the same problem. Tried several Renesas installers, all failed.
    Microsoft Windows Installer says: 'Stopped working. Files that help describe the problem: AppCompat.txt, WERInternalMetadata.xml, WERDataCollection failure'.
    2) APC Battery Backup 'PowerChute' Software
    Problem: : The installer runs part way through the "Preparing to install' process and goes into  limbo -or- I get an error message telling me to check the USB connection. APC cable is pulgged into a native port, not a hub. APC has no solution.
    3) Logitech Harmony One Remote Software (Finally installed in 'Safe' Mode
    Error: : The installer runs part way through the "Preparing to install' process and goes into limbo, but, when I went into 'Safe Mode' the software installed properly. Installation of the other two examples yield the Windows 'can't be installed in safe mode'
    Help Appreciated - IM

    To rule out a Windows problem, have you tested with a fresh parallel installation?

  • Device Driver Installation on Virtual PC XP mode

    Hi,
    I am having Windows 7 Professional setup. I have installed Windows Virtual PC XP Mode on it. I need to access USB for connecting my Windows Embedded device with Visual Studio Platform Builder which has installed in XP mode. Using USB over network
    tool i have tried to make the USB device to be accessible from XP mode and tried to install APX USB driver in Virtual PC.
    I got this notification from the installation setup "Could not start the Hardware" . Also checked this USB device installation with other XP pc. There it worked fine. 
    Is there any option to make the USB device accessible from virtual PC ? 
    Best Regards,
    Dinesh

    Hi,
    The USB device might need to be redirected:
    We may take a look at the following article about USB device usage in Virtual PC:
    Use a USB device in a virtual machine
    To redirect a USB device to a virtual machine
    Attach the device to the physical computer and turn on the device.
    From the virtual machine window, click USB and then click
    Attachdevice name. Windows looks for and tries to install the device driver in the guest operating system. You also can install the driver from the Internet or from a CD. 
    After the driver is installed, you can use the USB device from within the virtual machine the same way as you would on a physical computer. However, USB devices that are connected using these steps are not shared, so they must be released from one operating
    system to be available for use on the other operating system.
    To make the USB device available on the host operating system, release it from the virtual machine. From the virtual machine window, click
    USB and then click Releasedevice name.
    Best regards

  • Mtp device driver installation on nokia 5800 fails

    when i connect my nokia 5800 in media transfer mode, windows try to find the drivers for the mtp device, but it always fails no matter what i have tried. i need to fix this.
    Greece Nokia X6 RM-559 v40.0.002

    Hi,
    I have gotten my Nokia 5800 to work in all connection types.
    Firstly, I had updated my phone to the latest firmware available to me via NSU (v31.0.101), and made a back up of my contacts and memory card.
    1. Uninstalled Nokia PC suite, Cable driver, and PC connectivity (might not have got the exact names right).
    2. Ran the Nokia PC suite cleaner.
    3. Restarted the PC.
    4. Formatted the memory card.
    5. Did a hard reset on the phone (green button + red button + camera button - until country selection pops up during the power up of the phone)
    6. Installed Nokia PC suite (latest version).
    7. Connected the 5800 to the PC in the default connection, and let all the drivers install.
    All the drivers, including the MTP USB device driver installed successfully. To be on the safe side, I changed the connection type from the phone toall the different connections to make sure it installed.
     Also run the app update application first before restoring backups and re-installing applications.
    Let me know if this helps.
    Thanks.

  • Synaptics Pointting device Driver installs on an Desktop machine while deploying Windows 7X64 using MDT 2013 Update 1

    I am deploying Windows 7X64 on Dell OptiPlex 990 and other desktops. Deployment goes fine but the Synaptics pointing device driver gets installed after the deployment is complete. Also after applying operating system I get a prompt to Run the Synaptics Pointing
    Driver setup twice. If I don't click yes to install the TS wont proceed. Its gets worse when I uninstall the Synaptics Device Driver from Appwiz.Cpl and reboot the machine the Keyboard fails with the error Code:29. Above is the screenshot of what I get after
    Applying Operating System step. Thanks in Advance.

    I have also encountered this in MDT 2013 Lite Touch deployments for Windows 8.1 and I am researching it. 
    I noted that the Synaptics driver was installed for "SmBus" in Device Manager for a motherboard with an Intel 7 Cxxx Series chipset (Dell Optiplex desktop).  The HardwareID's are all PCI\VEN8086...
    We use %Model% in our task sequence and have a folder for each model such as "Optiplex 7010" in Out-of-Box Drivers. 

  • How to make Automatically Device driver installation in Win 7/WIn 8 when using RNDIS in Windows Compact

    We are developing a precision instrument that measures Temperature, Pressure and humidity used in the pharmaceutical industry.
    The Instrument is based on Windows Embedded Compact (7.0)
    WE establish a TCP communication vi a USB connection. This is done by the RNDIS Driver.
    When we connect the instrument to a PC we have to do the following in Windows:
    http://developer.toradex.com/knowledge-base/how-to-install-microsoft-rndis-driver-for-windows-7
    The INF that is used is then C:\Windows\inf\rndiscmp.inf
    We want this to be executed automatically
    The way it is automated is by setting the correct entry’s in the registration database on the Instruments. In Windows CE registration database.
    On
    http://www.usb.org/developers/defined_class we think we must set Base Class = EFh, SubClass = 04h and Protocol = 01h.
    But how is this done in the registry on the device?
    Who can help me :-)

    Hi Mads,
    changes in "rndisfn.h" in public folder have no influance on your project, because those files are not built at all. Visual Studio will use this one anyway (which is already built): C:\WINCE700\public\common\oak\target\armv7\retail\rndisfn.dll
    To make use of Microsoft public code, you have to clone this code - that is copy selected source files to BSP folder and adjust DIRS files to include new data in the compilation process.
    To clone RNDIS component, copy rndis folder from C:\WINCE700\public\common\oak\drivers\UsbFn\class
    to C:\WINCE700\platform\YOUR_BSP\Src\COMMON\USBFN.
    Edit source file C:\WINCE700\platform\YOUR_BSP\Src\COMMON\USBFN\rndis\rndisfn\sources:
    DOSYSGEN=1
    TARGETDEFNAME=RNDISFN
    TARGETNAME=RNDISFN
    TARGETTYPE=DYNLINK
    DLLENTRY=_DllEntryCRTStartup
    SOURCES= \
    rndisfn.cpp \
    TARGETLIBS= \
    $(_COMMONSDKROOT)\lib\$(_CPUINDPATH)\ndis.lib \
    $(_COMMONOAKROOT)\lib\$(_CPUINDPATH)\ceddk.lib \
    $(_SYSGENSDKROOT)\lib\$(_CPUINDPATH)\coredll.lib
    SOURCELIBS=\
    $(SG_OUTPUT_ROOT)\platform\$(_TGTPLAT)\lib\$(_CPUINDPATH)\rndismini2.lib \
    $(_PUBLICROOT)\common\oak\lib\$(_CPUINDPATH)\ufnclientlib.lib
    Finally, edit C:\WINCE700\platform\YOUR_BSP\Src\COMMON\USBFN\dirs to include your new component (folder) in the build process:
    DIRS=\
    RNDISKITL \
    RNDIS \
    System will build now new rndisfn.dll, which will replace the original one in the public directory. I hope I didn't forget anything...

  • MyCloud unit asking to install device driver?

    I see a seemingly undocumented "Install" option when viewing my MyCloud device locally on the LAN using Windows Explorer (under Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit) Click on "Network" in Windows Explorer's left pane; the computers + other devices Windows found on the network appear in the right paneThe MyCloud unit actually has two entries (icons), one under "Media Devices" and one under "Storage", but both behave the sameRight-click the icon and the first (and default) item in the pop-up menu is "Install" (having the little shield to indicate that it needs administrative access to run). If run, Windows tries to install a device driver, but that installation failed; Windows showed a "device driver installation was not successful" message stating that no driver could be found. The Windows event log showed that there were several prior steps involving a "UMbus" driver and service that _were_ successful.After "installation", that first/default choice in the right-click menu changes to "Uninstall" and whatever "uninstallation" it does completes with no errors reported. Just curious - what is that device driver - and is it actually needed for anything? Thanks,Richard 

    Installing just icons shouldn't need anything to do with the UMbus service or device enumeration on that "bus"... Wonder if it's something that could apply to WD storage devices that are accessible both directly-connected by USB and via a network (wired or wireless) - such as some of the "My Passport" devices - and has erroneously been (partially) included in whatever properties information the MyCloud device broadcasts or gives out when polled by a PC's "network discovery"? But local access to the shared folders or the device's dashboard certainly doesn't need that driver, so I shall just ignore it. :-) Regards,Richard

  • Create additional installer error code -12 file not found from device driver cd

    I'm trying to build an installer for a project that includes several NI drivers - specifically NI-DMM. NI-SCOPE, NI-SWITCH, NI-845x, and a few others (MAX, DAQ, etc). When I build the software standalone (and only include the run-time engine), it works fine. However, when I try to build the installer with the additional installers (mentioned above), the build prompts me for device driver cds, and then fails. Specifically, it fails on the February 2006 Device Driver cd. The error is attached below.
    I have tried
     - repairing all the installations of the software mentioned
     - using a new project and re-adding the files
     - building the additional installers seperately (no source code installed)
     - copying the driver cds to the harddrive and referencing them there when needed
    The next step will be to reinstall all of those drivers from scratch, but I really would prefer not to. Does anyone have any ideas (or solutions) regarding this problem?

    I have had this happen a lot espescially with LV 8.0 -8.20. What I had to do was take the device drivers CD and copy it to the and run the installation of the software from the copy on the hard disk.
    When you build an exe with additional installers it looks at the last place that  you installed the drivers from. Anyway it worked for me so it might work for you.

  • OpenVPN installation - cant install TAP-Win32 device driver

    Hi all, ok ive tried openvpn forums, and getting no joy, so im trying here.
    I have recently configured a pfsense server for VPN, and am testing out the OpenVPN
     client on a few users. I have installed OpenVPN and it is up and running like a dream on all the users PC's its been tried on, OS's being windows XP, and windows 7.
    However today when installing it on a users laptop, on XP sp3, it will not install the TAP-Win32 device driver.
    During installation an error box appears;
    "error occurred installing the TAP-Win32 device driver"
    The login account does have administrative rights, (right clicking the install file and selecting run-as the selected user has admin rights), and I have tried the previous version openvpn-2.rc19, still has same problem (read on another forum this solved the problem for someone)
    Any suggestions ? Much appreciated.

    To fix the ERROR installing tap on windows 8/8.1, you need to do the following things:
    Start your window in SAFE MODE now how do u do that? 
    Follow these steps:
    Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, tap Settings, and then tap Change PC settings.
    (If you're using a mouse, point to the lower-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer up, click Settings, and then click Change PC settings.)
    Under PC settings, tap or click Update and recovery, and then tap or click Recovery.
    Under Advanced startup, tap or click Restart now.
    Once your PC restarts, on the Choose an option screen, tap or click Troubleshoot.
    If you don't see the Startup Settings option, tap or click Advanced options.
    Tap or click Startup Settings.
    Tap or click Restart.

    After downloading, install using administrator permission(right-click and run as administrator)
    The openvpn will install and automatically the TAP will install too. After installation, restart your computer and its SOLVED!!!

  • Windows 7 RC installation on MacBook Pro: 'DVD drive device driver missing'

    I'm trying to install the Windows 7 RC on my unibody MacBook Pro (purchased november 2008). I create the partition in Boot Camp, insert the install DVD, and restart the system. Then the Windows setup starts as it's supposed to (Windows is loading files). The install program launches fine, and I get to choose language settings.
    And now it all fails. After I've chosen language settings, I get the message: "A required CD(DVD drive device driver is missing. If you have a driver floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now."
    Screenshot of the message: http://img25.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dsc00102yyh.jpg
    I'm kinda baffled by this message. Obviously the drive can be use by the install program, but it still complains of a missing driver. I had no trouble installing the Windows 7 beta earlier this year.
    I've done some googling, and it appears to be problem experienced by some others. Someone had the issue on an Asus machine (I think), and the solution was to download the driver and out it on a USB stick. But I can't seem to find the driver for the MBP DVD drive anywhere.
    Has anyone else experienced this issue?

    After countless days trying to solve this problem, I feel I can now add to the few solutions presented on the various forums of the internet. I'll post here because 1: i'm a mac user for everyday life although like most have as many pc's as well. 2: I already have a login for these forums!
    okay so i tried everything from re-burns to usb install (which I could not complete because removable drives are not recognized by xp and I don't have a vista system). The problem for me ended up being because the DVD drive was plugged into the primary master ide channel. My hard drive for the unit i was installing windows on is sata and was configured as such (not bridged into IDE channel by bios). So in a nutshell it seems like the hard drive and the DVD drive are nit picky in regards to the IDE configuration of the drives themselves. This won't help for virtualization on a mac pro I realize but nonetheless is food for thought hopefully for all the people searching for " windows 7 install cd/dvd device driver missing " in their search engine!
    Oh boy one more reason to love mac's

  • Can't install Windows 7 Pro x64 - device driver missing - can't eject DVD

    Hello,
    I am trying to install Windows 7 Pro x64 - I create the partition in boot camp and start windows install process. **During the Windows install process**, it says "A required CD/DVD device driver is missing. If you have a driver floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now. Note: if the Windows installation media is in the CD/DVD drive, you can safely remove it for this step".
    Apparently the drivers are on the OSX install DVD. But, there is no way to eject the windows DVD! Why on earth is there no manual eject on Macs? Is there another way to eject? I tried to put a paperclick in the slot next to where a CD is inserted but it didn't do anything. Is there another way to get Windows to see the correct device drivers?
    I am all for clean slick designs, but when it does not have all required functionality, it is kind of useless.
    I am talking to Mac Support and they can't help.
    Looks like I will have to return this Mac, I also need to boot into full Windows (without Parallels or VMWare) to do my work.

    You don't mention what Mac you have, so I'd have to say there is almost no way to help.
    IF the 7 Pro x64 came download ISO thru EDU, you have to burn it, and if you use Disk Utility, at 2X reduced burn speed... otherwise it won't work.
    A VM isn't fussy and can use ISOs.
    If you want both native and VM, to have Windows installed on its own hard drive and use it under OS X, then you have to install it and use Boot Camp Assistant.
    I'd say it is all about your DVD media.

  • IPhone not showing up in iTunes- device driver issue?

    I'm having a problem getting iTunes to recognize my iPhone. I'm running XP Pro 64-bit. I know iTunes isn't supposed to work with x64 XP, but I've had it working for months now (by doing a quick edit to the .msi installer it will install on XP). I'm using the newest iTunes 8.1 and the new 3.0 iPhone OS (yes, im on the developer program). When i plug it in windows beeps and gives me the camera wizard, but iTunes does nothing. I've tried updating the driver in device manager and choosing "i will pick the driver to install" and then picking the apple mobile device driver. i clicked "continue anyway" when it told me my face was going to melt off if i use this driver. I went to help in iTunes and ran diagnostics; everything passes on the connectivity tests, but then it tells me "one or more sync tests failed". I had it working 2 days ago with the 3.0 and iTunes 8.1. it just all the sudden stopped working. any help is greatly appreciated. i thank you in advance for your time.

    If you are a registered developer - the iPhone SDK runs on an Intel Mac running OS X Leopard only, then you can visit the Developer Forum for the SDK (which isn't supported with Windows) and for the 3.0 BETA, which is for IPhone and iPod Touch app development, which requires an Intel Mac running Leopard.

  • VISTA - can;t find device driver for your IPOD - read the solution here!

    It would appear that VISTA is rather stupid when it comes to the Ipod - it can't find the driver for itself. Do the normal autmatic way of trying to find the driver (that doesn't find the device) then look in the hardware device list (control panel) you should see you Ipod listed under other devices with a yellow triangle next to it. Right click this line and select "properties". then click "update device driver". Then, DON'T do the automatic find, instead click "I will choose the device from a list". Click on "storage device" and voila! VISTA now finds a USB mass storage device and installs it - JOB DONE! HOORAY!
    good luck!
    Mark.
    Ipod 5G video colour   Other OS   WINDOWS VISTA ULTIMATE

    When you are prompted to look for a driver input
    C:\WINDOWS\System32 and browse it will find a generic
    volume that fixes it.
    I tried this as well. I can find a Generic Volume (I think it lists SD, MMC- neither of which seem correct), but neither of those helps. iPod still isn't recognized as a drive even in disc mode. I started another thread after not finding this one. I'm not sure why USB Mass Storage device isn't one of the options.

  • Install Device Driver Software for Palm TX

    My new notebook has Windows Vista and I have had my Palm TX for almost two years.  To install the Palm on my notebook I downloaded the version for Vista from Palm.com.  When I went to synchronize the Palm with the computer during the installation the message kept coming back that "device driver software" could not be found.  Where do I find the driver software?  Is it on the original CD that came with the Palm?  At this point I don't know what to do.  Can someone help me with this problem?
    Post relates to: Palm TX

    mar008,
    When you upgraded to Vista, did you install over the existing XP install on the same PC or get a new computer with Vista?
    If you upgraded over the existing install of XP, you may need to do a "clean" uninstall and re-install Palm desktop. You should be able to use the original CD that you got with the TX on the Vista OS.
    Not sure why you are getting the 680 message. Did you ever have a Treo 680 or a handheld that is a different model than the TX?
    Here are the "clean" uninstall procedure for Vista.
    You should first make a copy of your data to have just in case something
    happens. You can find your data files by going to Start --> Documents -->
    Palm OS Desktop. Highlight your Palm Desktop username and right click and
    copy. Then go to your PC desktop right click on a blank spot and select paste.
    Now you want to uninstall Palm Desktop and remove everything that has to do
    with Palm Desktop from your computer.
    Go to the following locations on the PC and delete the folders listed below.
    C:\Program Files\Palm or Palm One
    C:\Users\[Vista Login Name]\appdata\local\virtualstore\Program Files\Palm or
    PalmOne
    C:\Users\[Vista Login Name]\appdata
    *Note you may need to view hidden folders to get to appdata. To do that go
    into your control panel and open folder options. Go to view tab and uncheck
    hide hidden files.
    Once this is done you will need to delete some registry keys from your PC Operating System.
    Word of warning, going here and deleting the wrong thing can cause your PC
    from starting up, crashing and deletion of programs and data. If you feel
    you are unsure of yourself, see if you have a friend that can help you or a
    PC technician that you can pay to help you. This procedure will show them everything they need to delete. To make sure we have a good copy of the current registry, we need to do a backup of the Registry.
    Go to start on the PC, in the search field type "regedit.exe" without quotes.
    Highlight COMPUTER, go to File --> Export. Should pop up with a Save As box.
    Current location is fine, should be in My Documents or save to a location you will remember. In the file name on the bottom type "backup[todaysdate]" i.e. backup07072008. Next, the hard part.
    The easiest way to make sure your working with the correct key, highlight the key i.e. palm quick install, and press delete on your keyboard. It will ask you, are you sure. Say yes. Do the same thing for all keys below.
    If you make a mistake, stop what you are doing. And call a PC technician.
    BUT do not turn off your computer.
    The reg keys are as follows (Note: some of theses reg keys will not be here
    but if they are delete them)
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Palm Quick Install
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\PalmOne File Transfer
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Pilot Desktop
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm, Inc.
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmDesktopAutorun
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\palmOne
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmSource
    * HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\PalmSource or anything else that says palm
    Next reboot your computer.
    Then reinstall your palm desktop from the CD and do a hotsync. If it asks
    you for a username and you synced your device before, put in 'test" if you
    did not sync before create a hotsync name.

  • IPod Nano 8G - Win7 - Device driver software wat not successfully installed

    Hi,
    Just got my first Apple iPod Nano 8G (4th) and has installed iTune 9.0.2 (64bit) on my Win 7 Ultimate x64. But I am not able to connect iPod nor Sync with iTune successfully even after reinstall/reboot many times with the same problem.
    After the installation of iTune accomplished, I plug USB adapter into PC, then Win7 detected and started to install the driver for the hardware, but got "Device driver software wat not successfully installed" as a result.
    Then I went to Device Manager tring to install the driver manually for "Apple iPod USB Driver", but finally I failed again and got "Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device....", I think this is the software problem, please kindly advise, thanks a lot!

    First, my officejet 4500 all-in-one installed and is working perfectly with wireless; however, I have for months still/have been getting the error/uninstall window continuously, telling me install was not successful, but again, printer, scanner, etc., working fine!  But this "the installation was not successful" window is ALWAYS up or if I ctrl-alt-del and get it to end now, it comes back up; I have even let it do its thing, finish, restart, but it ALWAYS comes back up, trying to find a solution, etc.  BUT MY PRINTER IS WORKING FINE!  Please help me get rid of this; also, the file that it puts on desktop to troubleshoot, etc then delete afterward, I have deleted it, but this "unsuccessful" keeps trying to uninstall, reinstall; and as I said, actually went through all the steps to get it gone (printer working fine) but it will not go away!  Thanks. ajm
