Ni-daq 6.7 and lab-pc+

Question

I cannot get my lab-pc+ board to be recognized by ni-daq 6.7 and/or MAX. I
have installed the board using the add new hardware control panel. Windows
98 seems to recognize the board and give it the requested resources, which
match the jumper settings. I can see it under the device manager. One bit of
oddness is that the "NI-DAQ Information" tab in Lab-PC+ Properties contains
"Bus type ISA" and no other information. When I run MAX (2.0.2.79) and try
to add a new device, DAQ is not listed as an option. I have VISA 2.5b3
installed. After installing the latest VISA beta, I was surprised to find
that MAX does not run inside windows explorer, but always is launched in its
own window. If anyone can suggest how to get my daq board function
ing, I
would be grateful.

Answer 1

I had this problem also. Make sure you have administrative privileges. My
problem was that one of the system directories that LV needed to write too
did not have an owner and did not have any permissions associated with it.
