Can I install DAQPad-6015 in window 7?

We have old program running in Window XP, but I need to upgrade the old computer. So I purchased new computer and install new LabVIEW and DAQmx. But the problem is that I cannot install my DAQPad-6015 in Window 7. Is it possible to install 6015 in Window 7?

Here is the link that says that new DAQmx can support 6015...

Hi SJPark,

 

Unfortunately, the DAQPad-6015 is not supported on Windows 7. See this KnowledgeBase article that confirms this.

The below web link is confused.... It looks that DAQPad-6015 is working using NI-DAQmx 9.7 in Window 7 (64bit). Please clarify the website.

Hi SJPark,

 

On the download page for NI-DAQmx 9.7, it lists operating systems that work with the driver and lists hardware that work with the driver works. However, if you look at the readme for DAQmx 9.7, both listed under "Supporting Files" and linked here, there is a heading near the bottom: "Devices Not Supported in NI-DAQmx on Windows 8/7/Vista". The NI DAQPad-6015 is listed here. I do agree that it can be confusing, but be sure to look through readme files for information on compatibility.

 

The NI DAQPad-6015 is a legacy device. NI recommends USB X Series hardware for newer applications and for more channels and higher sampling rates.
