missing dll

When installing NI-DAQmx 9.0.1, I get an error.  In the upper left corner on the dialog it indicates that the error is with "nidevmon.exe - System Error".  The error description is: "The program can't start because nimhwcfu.dll is missing from your computer.  Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."  I have reinstalled the program, and I have uninstalled and then reinstalled the program.  Still the same error.  The computer is new, and the OS is Windoze 7.  I looked for the dll, and it is indeed not present in the system32 folder, which is where I found it on my desktop PC. This error happens during the installation process.

9.0.1 is not supported on windows 7. Try the latest.

Odd, the disk is labeled as Win 7 compatible.  Whatever, it appears that you are correct.  Installed 9.2.1 and all is well.  Thanks Dennis.
