NI USB-8473 Windows can not find Driver

After I install my CAN Software 2.6.1 and connect my USB device, Windows starts the Hardware Wizard but, can not find the Drivers for this device.  I started out with 2.4 and uninstalled and reinstalled it which did not help and then I upgraded to 2.6.1.  This did not seem to help either.  My impression is that this is something to do with Windows or the computer, but I thought I would ask if anyone has seen this problem before in case it is a hardware or software issue.
Solved!

Hi,
Thank you for your post.  The NI-CAN driver is an inf file titled nican.inf.  Instead of automatically detected the driver in the Found New Hardware Wizard, try browsing to the nican.inf file.  This file is found in the following directory: C:\Program Files\National Instruments\NI-CAN\staging.
If this doesn't work, I would run the Microsoft Windows cleanup utility linked below and remove all NI-CAN registries from your system and then reinstall the driver once again.

  • Why am I getting an error message,"windows can not find(my Yahoo mail launch address)"when accessing Yahoo mail site?

    Using WindowsXP, and e-mail via Yahoo,browser is Firefox 4.0.I get the following error message when accessing yahoo mail site:"http://us.f831.mail.yahoo.com/dc/launch?action=welcome&yy=1782408664&.rand=0qrsdp1o...Windows can not find(the above address is inserted here).make sure you typed the name correctly,and try again". After this message is displayed on my desktop it begins to fade,and the inbox of my yahoo mail is then displayed..I am able to work all functions of the mail without problems.( I might add at this point that i access the mail program via a desktop icon).When I close out of the program the error message box with the error described above is displayed again on my desktop.I must click on the "X" to remove it.I can access my yahoo mail via Internet Explorer with no problem,as well as accessing via my yahoo home page.

    Here's an image of the ERROR Message. I'm not sure how this forum works -- if this image is an attachment or if it shows up in the body of this reply.

  • Can not find driver for Thinkpad T500

    I can not find driver for Thinkpad T500? Could you please help me?
    Moderator edit: Matched Subject to content.

    Thanks to the folks at Kepware. I was able to get this working for CompactLogix L32E.
    Step 1: In NI OPC Server Create a new Channel. Channel Name can be whatever you want.
    Step 2: Device driver will be ControlLogix Ethernet.  You can also enable diagnostics if you want.
    Step 3: Network adapter. I used default setting.
    Step 4: Write only latest values.  Duty at 10. ( These are default settings and are recommended.)
    Step 5: Finish new Channel setup
    Step 6: Click on Icon to create new device
    Step 7: Device Name can be whatever you chose.
    Step 8: Select Device Model in this case CompactLogix 5300
    Step 9: Device ID For me was IP Address XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX,1,0    (Note the 1 directs path to backplane. The 0 to the slot where processor is)
    Step 9: Device timing.  Leave at defaults.
    Step 10: Auto demotion leave unchecked.
    Step 11: Leave at defaults Do not generate on startup Delete on create and allow subgroups
    Step 12: Port and watchdogs at default settings
    Step 13: Project options leave at default. (In my case I changed to short as that is what most of my tags were)
    Step 14: Create tagname from device.
    Step 14: Finish Device setup.
    You now have two options. 
    Option 1: Start creating tags as you need them. (This is what I did)
    Option 2: Right Click newly created device and select properities.  Then select database creation and click auto create.
    Go To Lookout  and create new driver. 
    Select OPC Client
    Server name will be from dropdown menu. National Instruments:NIOPCServers
    Click okay
    You should be done and smiling. 

  • Windows can not find ' FILE ': error.

    I have downloaded and installed the production version of SQL Developer. (1.0.0.14.67)
    Windows XP SP 2.
    When I started it for the first time I checked all the file association check boxes.
    If I double click on a .sql file the following windows error occurs:
    Windows can not find '<file>'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To Search for a file, click the Start button, and then click search.
    SQL Developer does startup. The error message is closed when the OK button is selected.
    Any Ideas?
    Regards;
    Robert

    Hi Robert,
    Just to confirm, SQL Developer does actually open the file. The only issue is the error message displayed. I have logged a bug for that.
    There is a work around until that is sorted. If you use explorer to associate the file types with SQL Developer, they open without this error.

  • My window can not find air port

    After caieport utility my PC can not find the base , I have tried numerous times

    I recently purchased one of the new Airport Extreme base stations and after carefully reading the instructions; I first installed the Airport Utility 5.5 that came on the CD onto my MacbookPro. I then connected the new base station to my macbookpro via Ethernet and power it up. I copied a previously saved configuration onto it. All my printers, IMAC and macbookpro were able to connect.
    I then used my older base station and my airport express to extend the N and G networks through the house. My problem was (1) the new Airport utility would consistently lose the older extreme base station and the airport express, (2) An my HP printers keep losing the wireless connection to the new airport extreme base station. The only resolve was to consistently restart the new base station, after which (1) the new airport utility would see the older base station and express again and (2) the wireless connection to the printers would be restored.
    After about a week of this, I removed the new Airport Extreme and replaced it with the older extreme (802.11N DRAFT) and de-installed the Airport Utility 5.5 and re-installed Airport Utility 5.4.2 and everything works fine.
    Has anyone else experienced any problems with the newly released Airport Extreme (fully 802.11N) base stations and Airport Utility 5.5?

    Sounds quite weird that you can't open profile manager or launch the official Mozilla installer. Probably try to reboot, and to scan for malware?

  • Windows can not find the driver for PCI-1428

    Windows 2000 Find's the PC!-1428 Board, but it doesn't
    find the Driver. IMAQ 2.51 it's all ready installed.

    Loo. If you go into MAX and look under the software tab, does NI-IMAQ 2.51 show up? If so, make sure the Image Acquisition VIs are available in LabVIEW (or make sure the library files are available in your programming environment). If the VIs don't appear, or if the software isn't in MAX, then you probably have a dirty installation. To clean it up, make sure NI-IMAQ is totally uninstalled and that the NI-IMAQ folder is empty.
    If everything appears to be normal in software, but the 1428 card still doesn't install, then the card may be bad. The best way to test this is to install the board on another computer. If it works on one computer but not the other, then it's definately a software problem.

  • Can not find driver for Geforce 420 Go (32MB) - Satellite 2410

    Hi,
    I have a Toshiba 2410-S504 and I'm having difficulty finding drivers for my nVidia Geforce 420 Go! The one's from the nVidia website will not install (If I force install them it reboots with a blue screen) and the latest one listed on the Toshiba website is from 2002!
    I've tried ones off of laptopvideo2go but with no success, I managed to find one that installed without bluescreening on reboot but it doesn't provide any graphical acceleration (Movies and DVDs, and games 'lag' when viewing, I fixed this by reverting to the Toshiba website drivers).
    Could someone point me in the right direction of new drivers?
    Thanks,
    Toby

    Hello Toby
    Unfortunately there is no wrong or right direction. I have checked Toshiba download page and there is no newer driver. But if you are ready to make a experiment for all of us you can try to install the latest driver from Satellite Pro 6100. I have googled a little bit and found out that both units have the same graphic card. If you check Toshiba download page for Satellite Pro 6100 you will see that latest driver is from year 2003.
    If you test it please let us know what happen.
    Good luck!

  • Windows can't find driver for ipod nano 7th generation

    I just got the IPod Nano 7th generation.  When I plugged I in the computer will pick up the apple mobile storage device usb driver, but I get an error for the iPod saying that no driver was found.  I have tried connecting to different usb ports and also tried uninstalling anything related to the iPod or iTunes.  So, any help would be appreciated.

    Ok I fixed the problem I had.  I went under device manager and right-clicked the ipod icon, and told it to update the driver.  For the update though I didn't use the automatic search.  I told it to search in the location  (windows/winsxs) and it found the driver.  I hope this helps somebody else.
    Since I didn't mention it earlier I have Windows 7 64-bit.
