Problems installing Labview Drivers

Im trying to use Labview to control a AVR EBF6 B Avtech pulser and a Tektronix TDS 744A scope.
I have a Keithly KPCI 488A GPIB card in a PC running XP.
I downloaded the NI-488.2 2.7 driver from the National Instruments website but am having problems getting NI's Measurement and Automation Explorer to configure the GPIB devices.
The card doesn't show up at all.
It's not a hardware problem i don't think as i have another setup which uses the Keithly GPIB driver which came with the card and this communicates fine with the same pulser and scope.
Am i missing any driver? Or have i installed a wrong one?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Problems Installing LabVIEW Run-Time Engine for Ubuntu 11.04
    I'm relatively new to Ubuntu and its community, but have been pleasantly surprised with how easy troubleshooting has been. Unfortunately, I've spent the last two days trying to install the LabVIEW Run-Time Engine, but keep coming up short.
    I've tried a number methods from the following threads to no avail:
    The problem I'm having now is that despite having the ia32-libs, here is what comes up:
    Input: "sudo alien - k --scripts labview-2009-rte-9.0.1-1.i386.rpm"
    Response: "labview-2009-rte-9.0.1-1.i386.rpm is for architecture i386; the package cannot be built on this system".
    Alien is required because Ubuntu isn't compatible with the .rpm format.
    Your help would be immensely appreciated since we use LabVIEW programs to display, manipulate and simulate our spectra.

    Hey there I'm not too familiar with Ubuntu but you may find some help in the following areas:  Linux Users is a group that helps out other linux users.   Also  labview for linux (Ubuntu 64-bit) my help, people were having a pretty active discussion in there.
    I'm guessing you're using the installer from here: LabVIEW Run-Time Engine 2011 -Linux?

  • Will there be problems installing LabVIEW 7.1 if I upgrade to Windows XP?

    We have a program in LabVIEW 7.1 running on Windows 2000.  We plan to upgrade all of our computers to Windows XP.  Will there be any problems installing LabVIEW 7.1 onto Windows XP?

    Hi,
    No, you won't experience any problems with that upgrade.  LabVIEW 7.1 is fully compatible on Windows XP, just as it is on Windows 2000.

  • Problems installing audio drivers

    Hi,
    I have a x61 notebook, and after reinstalling Win XP (pro, SP3) I can't get the audio to work. I have tried to install the drivers from Lenovos web site (7ka113ww.exe) but get an error message saying: "The HDA Audio bus driver is required and not found".
    In device manager I have two uninstalled devices, one PCI Device and on Unknown device. Where can I download the HDA Audio bus driver?
    Some threads (e.g.http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.ph​p?t=195883) says that I shall install Universal Audio Architecture (UAA) High Definition Audio class driver (Q888111) for Windows XP, but I only find this for SP 1 or 2, not for SP3 as I have. If I try to install the one for SP2, I get another error message saying "the service pack version is newer then the update you are applying". Anyone know where I can find the correct drivers?
    Edit: I sent an email to Microsoft to obtain the 888111 hotfix, but got a response back saying that this hotfix is included in Windows XP SP3, so I should already have it on my machine.
    Thanks, TJ

    You'd likely have to install the UAA driver before you but on SP3.
    If it's already included in SP3 then find the .inf file, or whatever file, name and point the unknown device in the device manager to that.
    But yes... it seems as if there are problems with high-definition audio and SP3; maybe try this:

  • Problem Installing LabView

    I am trying to install LabView ver. 8.5 for the first time.  The installation procedure is telling me to put in the disk labeled National Instruments Device Drivers - August 2008 Disk 2.  However I do not have a disk with that name.
    I have 4 DVDs, three are labeled NI Developers Suite (disks 1-3) and the other is labeled NI Device Drivers Third Quarter 2008.  However, that disk doesn't make the install process happy.  How can I fix this??

    Hi Rich,
    You're not the first to run into this.  If you insert DVD 4 you can point the installer to the directory named "DCD-Aug08-2" and it should be happy.   It'll almost definitely ask for additional driver discs, but they'll be on DVD 4 every time.
    I hope it helps...

  • Problems installing amd drivers on HP Dv7 for windows 10

    I have the HP DV7 4263cl with switchable graphics AMD chipset M880G with both Mobility Radeon HD 4250  and AMD 6370m. My processor is the AMD Phenom II.  The drivers on HP's support site for my laptop are very old (2010) and work fine in Windows 7. However when I try to install the drivers in compatability mode on in Windows 8.1 or 10 or manually install them through the device manager, my computer does not respond well and doesnt install everything fully and either shuts down or shows a blue error screen.
     I have tried everything and haven't had any luck getting these installed.  Please Help!!!! 

    Yours is the third post I've seen about switchable graphics not working in Windows 10. Sadly, you may have to simply hope for a Windows 10 driver update. Have you checked for a Chipset or BIOS/UEFI update? Maybe you would have better luck on the AMD forum.   If you found my answer helpful please say thanks by clicking on the Thumb's Up icon. Thanks!

  • "problem installing LabVIEW Interface Generator"

    Hello,
    I am running labview 7.1, windows xp sp2.
    I am interested in trying out the new labview interface generator, but something seems to be going wrong on installation.
    I download and run the executable, it unpackages a bunch of stuff pretty fast, then it starts unpackaging an "MDSPlus" package that takes a very long time (20 minutes). Then the MDSplus install wizard comes up, I press ok/next. Then another very long wait while it installs, then finally a message saying MDSplus installation complete, click close to exit which I do. Then that wizard goes away, as does the extracting zip dialog. No errors, everything seems fine.
    But then when I open labview, there is no change: same old tools under tools/instrumentation. There is no "interface generator" on the list produced by add/remove programs (top level or under National Instruments). The only thing added is MDSplus.
    Have attempted several times, rebooted, etc. Still no new tools.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi TR:
    Thanks for your patience.   I think we (at NI) started barking up the wrong tree.  I went back to your original post and notice you said things like MDSplus, 20 minute install time, etc.   I'm wondering if this is something as simple as you are running the wrong installer.  The self-extracting archive file for the LabVIEW Interface Generator tool is named "driverctolv.exe".   Is this what you downloaded and are running?  If not, please go back to the web site:
    https://sine.ni.com/apps/utf8/nigb.guestbook?code=GB_INFOLVINSTDRIVER&lang=US&gb_prof_id=4982&scode=...
    Fill in the info again, select "Continue" to get to the next page.  If you are running Internet Explorer, right-click on the "Download the utility for LabVIEW 7.1" link and select "Save Target As...".  You should see the filename at this point.  Verify that it indeed has the name listed above.   After download then run the extracting archive.  The installer should take no more than a minute or two to install (no where near 20 minutes) and the dialogs should not indicate MDSplus.
    I did a few Google and other searches on MDSplus.  It seems that there are VI wrappers around MDSPlus libraries.  So, maybe you are also using this product separately?  
    If, for some reason, you are indeed launching the driverctolv.exe and somehow the MDSplus installer is being launched, we really need to take a totally different approach to problem solving.  But, maybe you can confirm before we go down that path.
    Again, thanks for your patience.

  • MSI GT683 Problem Installing Graphic Drivers

    Hi to all, I need help about my laptop MSI GT683...I have bought a graphic card because my is broken, that is Nvidia GTX560M but I have a problem: when I install Windows and I try to install the driver the screen became multicolor and I can't do anything else. I seen that when the site of the nvidia auto reconizes the graphic card the model showned is Nvidia GTX560 SE...Another problem is that in the bios the model of the notebook is GT680R and I don't know why...can you help me?

    What means "multicolor"? Do you have any picture of this symptom you described?
    The model name in the BIOS depends on the graphic card you installed. Some models re-use the same barebone of the older models and their difference is only the graphic card, so MSI may only provide one version of BIOS but will automatically detect the graphic card to change the model name in the BIOS.
    I'm not sure what's the problem you are facing but you can ask for help and contact local authorized service points.

  • Problems installing SATA Drivers for K8tm-ILSR with Via VT8237R

    I have a Gateway 812gm.  For some reason this machine was sent to me with the wrong board in it...at least accroding to Gateway.  It took me 2 months for them to believe that the board in my pc had sata capabilities.  Anyway...There is nothing in the bios for me to enable the sata ports on the motherboard.  I looked everywhere.  The current ver. of bios I am running is a67741vg1 v3.4b1 121404.  I tried to flash the latest bios version(1.6) that I could find.  I don't have a 3.5" floppy drive so I formatted a usb drive as a windows millenium boot disk.  Then I copied the two files:  a6741vms.160 and adsfi713.exe to the ramdrive(E:).  Then from the ramdrive I typed adsfi713 a6741vms.160     Then the AMI Flash Programming Utility for DOS comes up and says  "ROM FILE NAME A6741VMS.160 ROM SIZE 00040000H  - Error File Size Not Match.  I have an AMD Athlon 64 3200+.  I also have an IDE Raid controller hooked up...SIL 0680 ATA/144 Medley Raid Controller(don't know if that matters).  And I am trying to hookup a Seagate Barracuda 80 gig sata drive.  Model #ST380817AS.  Hope someone can help me out.  I desperately need it.  Thanks a bunch.

    Try this:
    - Go into bios and select Optimized Settings;
    - Reboot and go into bios again.
    - Goto Integrated peripherals and enable onboard SATA and set it to SATA when using only one disk. If this option isn't available, just select enable;
    - save and exit bios and restart PC;
    - when in Windows have a look under Device manager;
    - goto SCSI & RAID controllers and have a look. The VIA SATA RAID (or something like that) should be there.
       - If not,  look under IDE controllers and look for it there.
    One way or the other, it should be there now. If not, just tell us and we'll look further.

  • Installing LabView 8.6, Getting "Internal error 2738"

    Vista Sp1 Home
    Dell Q6600
    VS2005/8 installed
    LabView 8.5, TestStand 4.6
    I had some trouble getting the TPC-2106 to work becuase I realized I had failed to install the drivers for it to use it as a project target.  Vista installed the WMDC (windows mobile device center) program so I can browse the TPC as if it was a HD the second time I rebooted the device.  I know I had problems installing LabView the first time a few weeks back, some errors of this and that (I don't recall them exactly). 
    Now I have tried to re-install LabView 8.6 Pro Dev [NI Developer Suite 4Dvds 2008 3rd Qtr] and got a series of Internal Error 2738's, and the latest one is for the touch screen driver set (2rd item to puke, 3rd of 40 I picked to install all items, so I killed the install).  I will try to delete the old install of 8.6 and retry.  I saw some stuff about a MS error with vbscript.dll on some other website..?...?
    Anyone seen this?  Why do I get this?
    www.certtech.com

    Hi Abales,
    The issue seems to be with Microsoft VB Script as you rightly guessed. This doesn’t seem to be an NI issue, so I am not sure if this will fully resolve this.
    However when looking into this issue, I came across a Microsoft Forum based on this issue.
    They suggest to go START --> All Programs --> Accessories --> Command Prompt. You need to run this as an Administrator. To do this you need to right click on the Command Prompt at select Run as administrator.
    Once you have done this, type regsvr32 vbscript.dll This will re-register the specific dll that maybe causing the issue.
    I hope this helps.

  • Can't install Vista drivers; the installer keeps yelling at me to reboot to finish the insta

    ...And, of course, when I do, nothing happens. I've tried to rid my registry of everything Creative, but every time I run the beta driver install it yells at me saying that the drivers are already installed, and to reboot and finish the install.
    Ideas? I've had problems getting drivers to work before, but never problems INSTALLING the drivers...

    Yes do unpack the driver with Winrar, but use the setup.exe in driver folder instead. This will start an small pop up window called "Creative Update Utility". Enable "Overwrite Older version" box (could be named somehting else but you get the picture), and start installing. This should install the drivers, only problem is you wont get Audio Console installed. And there is no way of install audio console without the regular installer. But atleast you should get drivers installed, if you have the right files.

  • Problem with installing the drivers from cd-rom CTREG

    I have the following problems.
    st.. this one is the most urgent.. the problem is I can't seem to install from a drivers cd.. the error I get is like CTREGSVR.. it says it cannot find differnt applications on dri've c... there is like a whole bunch and in the end you just keep clicking ok ok ok until it continues to install. the drivers intll fine but none of the appliations seem to work. the funny thing is with the message is that its looking for someing like c:\program files\creative\sbzs2\then differnt dll and stuff and it says it cannot be found..
    the other problem I have is that once in a blue moon the mixer will not work and the only way to get it work is to pretty much go through the painful installin/re-intallation of the whole thing because nothing seems to work. It says the sounds blaster card could not be found...
    anyways if you guys could just help me out with the st prob. that would be great.
    thanks.
