Why is my USB DAQ device not detected by Windows?

Hello,
I had my USB-6229 connected to my PC (Windows 7 64bit) this morning and everything was fine: Windows detected the device, the device showed up on on NI MAX, and testing through NI MAX was successful. I then installed the NI DAQmx 9.8 driver to replace the NI DAQmx 9.6 driver that I was using (the DAQ Assistant icon in my functions menu in LabVIEW 2013 was not present, and this upgrade fixed that issue). Unfortunately, Windows now no longer recognizes the same DAQ device that worked earlier this morning.
Here's what I've tried so far:
Uninstalling the 9.8 driver and re-installing the 9.6
Tested another USB DAQ device; Windows could not detect it either
None of the DAQ devices register on WIndows's device manager (usb ports not broken, as the flash drives I inserted showed up on device manager)
As expected, none of the devices show up on NI MAX
Does anyone have any suggestions on what may have happened when I upgraded from the 9.6 driver to the 9.8?

Thanks for your reply, Philip. Yes, I did reboot my computer after installing the driver.
I contacted NI support, and we were unable to reach a solution, so, as a last effort, re-installed the driver for the third time, which finally worked. I'm not sure what the problem was, but here are some extra steps I took before re-installing the driver that may benefit those who encounter a similar problem:
1. As Philip mentioned, start the NI Device Loader if it has not been started or stop/start it if it has. The startup status ought to be set to "automatic." You can find the NI Device Loader by starting Task Manager, selecting the "Services" tab, then selecting the "Services" button. Scroll down the list until you find it.
2. Open up Device Manager and search for your device (mine was labeled as "unidentifiable"). Right click and select "Properties." Select the "Driver" tab. You may need to manually select the driver folder, which should be located in C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS.
Hope that helps.

  • GPIB-USB-B device not recognized by Windows XP

    I am using an HP Compaq nx9010 notebook with Windows XP Pro. When I plug in the the GPIB-USB-B, I get an error message telling me that 'The Device has not been Recognized'. I hjave followed all the instructions and have updated the bios and drivers of the notebook, but to no avail. I have uninstalled and reinstaleld the drivers several times to no effect. I have also tried running the device on an older Windows 98 PC, but the interface is not recognized there either! Is it broken?

    Hi Andrew,
    It's Pete from NIUK Tech. support department here. From what you've described it does sound like there may be something wrong with your product.
    Firstly, I would just like to make a couple of checks to make sure. If it is broken, we can then organise for it to be repaired/replaced.
    1. Has the GPIB-USB-B ever been working. i.e. how long have you had it, was it working when you got and has since stopped working or has it never worked.
    2. Are you plugging in the GPIB-USB-B before the computer is switched on. This shouldn't actually matter as it is a plug and play device. It would just be useful to know if it works when you switch the computer on with the device plugged in.
    3. I know you've tried it on a couple of computers with differen
    t operating systems, have you also tried different USB plug and play devices on the same USB port as your plugging this device into.
    These questions are just to cover all the bases before we send it back to the factory for repair. If we do need to RMA the device then I will need to speak to you in person to get some more details. If and when this is needed, it would probably be easier for you to either give me your e-mail address or phone into the department and ask for me.
    Anyway, if you get back to me with the answers to these questions then we can carry on from there.

  • Plz help, "device not detected" after windows updates?? I have so

    I have An Audigy 2 ZS, and have the latest drivers. It has been working PERFECT, LAST NIGHT I had like 0 WINDOWS UPDATES, i dont' know if any of these had anything to do with this. But, I just now went to the icon in the task bar, and went to change SPEAKER SETTINGS to switch to HEADPHONES as I ALWAYS DO, I was surprised when the "unable to change the sound device to your selected device", you press ok, and it comes up TWO MORE TIMES, Right after each other.
    I DO HAVE SOUND, FOR NOW. I have read other mentioning this error, but I didn't seem to find any answers. I can't go to speaker settings, or Surround Mixer,
    OK, NOW I tried to go to GRAPHICS EQ, and an error came up that said "THE AUDIO DEVICE SUPPORTED BY THIS APPLICATION IS NOT DETECTED, THE APPLICATION WILL EXIT"
    What is going on?
    I went to device manager and it says that the device is working properly, and I DO have sound.
    I DON'T get it. And I'm not likeing this. This is starting to worry me.
    Does ANYONE know what is going on.. PLZ?

    Thanx for the reply. I just now fixed it. I'm not totally sure what I did. Earlier I had uninstalled the device from Device manager, and then restarted, and it installed the drivers from the CD. It didn't fix it. So, I ran the LIVE update here at creative.com and downloaded the version I had before, I guess because when i had ran the update before I uninstalled the device the update wasn't there.
    But, it started to update, and said something it had to restart the pc in order to install the update, and after it installed the new "creative audio console" it now works.
    the whole thing was strange since I dind't lose sound at all. Just couldn't access settings.

  • Apple devices not detected in Windows 8.1

    Win 8.1, Itunes 11.2.2.3, Ipod 5 and Ipad Air not recognized in iTunes nor PC. Tried everything I've found in the net and nothing helps. USB ports working fine. Apple mobile device USB driver not listed. This is driving me nuts! Don't send me to the Apple support 1538 case. Please help!!!

    Excellent and thanks for the "spot on" tip!  I only wish I had found it before bringing up a different compter to re-sync my Apple mobile products, which of course meant I had to rebuild my libraries on that system.
    On Windows 8.1 64 bit I did find the steps to be a little different from what Steven outlined and for those less compfortable with technology I thought I would include a version edited for Windows 8.1 64 bit specifically.
    Connect You Apple Mobile device to the PC with iTunes.
    In the PC's Device Manager expand the "Portable Devices" entry.
    Right-click the Apple iPhone, Apple iPad, or Apple iPod entry in Device Manager and choose "Update Driver Software" from the shortcut menu.
    Choose the option to "Browse my computer for driver software" and browse to: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers and highlight that folder for the driver update.
    Click "OK" then "Next" and your Apple mobile device should now be rocognized (verify this in iTunes)
    Repeat for any other Apple mobile dvices synced on this computer.
    All credit to Steven, however!

  • Lumia 620 - Device not detected

    Hi,
    I've been using my 620 for a month now with no problems.I use the phone for developing purposes (Visual Studio 2012 + Windows 8 Pro).
    Around 8 days ago, I received a pack of updates of the Nokia bundled apps which I installed and after that, when I connect the phone via the USB cable, the Phone is not detected on Windows.
    I read lots of other threads about this kind of problems, even went through reinstalling all the Windows Phone SDK, reinstalled drivers (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2749484), tried 4 different USB cables, on all the ports of my computer, tried 5 different computers too (two of which have Windows 7, three have Windows 8), removing the SD card, and the Phone still is not detected. The charging icon appears and the Phone charges OK though.
    The Phone does not appear on Windows Device Manager under any kind of label (No Unrecognized Device either), Windows Explorer does not show any drive (MTP), its like the cable is not connected (although it charges without a problem).
    I don't have the Amber update yet.
    Is there any kind of setting (possibly hidden?) that controls the USB behavior of the phone? I read there are no Diagnostics tools for WP8, but, is there any way I can check if there is a hardware problem?
    Thanks in advance!

    The vol down + power is only a reboot. Perhaps you might consider a reset from Settings>about>reset your phone.

  • Which usb DAQ device to buy ?

    I am a total Noob when it comes to DAQ so please bear with me and help me with suggestiions on which NI USB DAQ to buy. I am biochemist and I have an old HPLC machine (basically a chemical purifying/seperation machine) I need to control by writing a labview program. I have labview 2013 and have some basic familiarity with it, and have used very easy VIs like blinking LEDs using arduino interface.
    My current project needs me to:
    1) control the flow rates on two pumps using their remote controller and vary their flow rates by varying voltages (0-10V) at not higher than 3 mA input current. basically, I need to be able to vary voltages on two analog pins. I am attaching the manual for the pump for more info. The pinout on the remote controller is on page 16/17 of the manual.
    2) I need to read analog voltage outputs from these two pumps (which measures the hydrostatic pressure) and save it to something like in .csv file.
    3) lastly, I need to read a analog output from a UV detector which will be in mV range and plot it and/or save that to .csv file .
    There are a bunch of NI DAQ USB devices which seems like they can do this job, my problem is that dont know enough to reliably make a judgement on which one to buy for this project. My budget is limited and I would definately like to do it with as cheap a DAQ as possible since we have multiple instruments like this, and we are planning to get rid of ancient 1990s computers running the original software and replace it with a USB DAQ device coupled with a labview program on a modern PC. The HPLC machines are far apart hence we run them on individual PCs instead of running a bunch on one computer through a DAQ device.
    I know its a whole bunch of questions, but I'll be glad for any guidance on this. also, to do the things I just described, how difficult do you guys think the VI would be if I use a NI DAQ and hopefully dont have any driver/communication  issues.

    I highly recommend you look up your local NI representative and have a nice sit down with them.  They can go over your requirements and give you really good advice on which device to get.

  • HT3887 why does my iPhone say device not supported when connecting to my make even after it has successfully paired?

    why does my iphone say device not supported when connecting to my mac pro, even though it has already succesfuly paired? I also use a wirless bluetooth keyboard and mouse on the computer successfully.
    Also when I turn Bluetooth on on the phone the devices cog never stops turning (forever serching for a device)

    iTunes automatically syncs voice memos to your iTunes library when you connect iPhone to your computer.
    It couldn't be much easier than that as you don't actually have to do anything more than normal.
    This lets you listen to voice memos on your computer and provides a backup if you delete them from iPhone.
    Voice memos are synced to the Voice Memos playlist. iTunes creates the playlist if it doesn’t exist. When you sync voice memos to iTunes, they remain in the Voice Memos application until you delete them. If you delete a voice memo on iPhone, it isn’t deleted from the Voice Memos playlist in iTunes. However, if you delete a voice memo from iTunes, it is deleted from iPhone the next time you sync with iTunes.
    USB syncing is far faster than Bluetooth.

    Hey @varun_viswanath ,
    Welcome back to the HP Forums!
    I see your USB is not being detected by your Omni 10 tablet.
    Can you tell me which drive you are connecting (make, model, and size please) and which OTG cable you are using for this?
    It would also help to know which Omni 10 tablet you have. You can see here for how to find the model: Locating the HP Omni 10 Tablet model number.
    Thanks.

  • Audio device not detected in control panels

    +Audio device not detected in control panelsa I've been using my X-Fi Platinum with Windows 7 64-bit fine for around a month now. Recently I encountered a problem where I couldn't record any sound including talking on Teamspeak. I decided to reinstall the drivers, so I cleaned them out with a driver cleaner tool, and reinstalled. Everything works fine again, but none of the applications will work anymore. They all give an error message about not being able to detect the device. This includes AutoUpdate, Creative Audio Control Panel, and Creative Console Launcher. The card appears to be working correctly everywhere else: Device manager, teamspeak works fine now, windows recorder, guitar rig (guitar amp emulator), dx diag, all working well.
    I also tried installing Daniel_K's driver pack to no avail.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,

    Did?you?reinstall the applications from the installation cd?

    Gx-fi fatalty device not detected when running speaker selection wizard? ?
    System is a custom build, based off an ASUS A8N-SLI Premium, with two GTX7800 display cards. in a SLI configuration
    Fresh installation fo Windows XP Profesional with SP3 slipstreamed.
    Origional CD fails to detect the card, claiming a supported device is not present.
    This card has worked prevously, and is verified as fully functional in windows Vista. ?
    Please note Windows Vista can not be used.
    I have tried about 30 different versions of the drivers (each on a clean installation) and used both clean and dirty boots, and nothing is working.
    Before anyone points me at other threads in this forum, please note i have been scouring this forum for the past week trying every sugestion there is, and I have raised a ticket with Creative (who despite the prommise of a 2 day responce, have yet to respond)
    I have tired multiple versions of the NForce drivers, NVidia display drivers, Creative Drivers, Bios updates, Chipset hacks and more.
    does anyone hav a sugestion that is not already posted on this forum.

    Tried it on one of the spare PC's in the house earlier (Nforce 2 based) - still no recognition of the card whatsoever, it's as if it doesn't exist.
    I'm guessing that the card is pretty much toasted eh?
