Thanks for your reply. I tried today several time and still got nothing. I did not find the daq files you mentioned in labview 7.1 file after the installation followed the instruction. how ever i found the nidaq.exe in the nidaq file of daq 6.9.3 driver file. if i run it and install the lv6.1 support in the directory of c:\Nationinstrument\labview 6.1 , I found the daq files which i guess should be installed in the labview 7.1. could you tell me how to do it manually?
thanks
