GPIB-USB-HS+ driver not working under Windows 10

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi everyone,

 

After installing Windows 10 Enterprise, the GPIB-USB-HS+ driver NI488.2 v16.0 is not recognized by Windows. The system works (still) perfectly with hard drive and Win 7 installed, but when I switch to ssd and Win 10 it's unable to find the driver.

I tried device manager > update driver software > search automatically and even pointed manually to where the driver software is located.  Also clicking on .msi file didn't solve the problem.

Could it be that the signature of the GPIB-USB-HS+ is not signed by National Instruments and Win 10 doesn't want to install unsigned drivers ? Any help or recommendation is highly appreciated. Thank you for your support!

 

Best wishes,

Johan

I would look into repairing the NI Device Driver install and use the update service to check for patches (I know that there is at least 1.)

 

488.2 v 16.0 claims to have support for GPIB-USB-HS+ and installs just fine on Win 10 for me
