LV does not see GPIB via VISA

Hy you all,

 I know there ar lots of topics arroud concerning this problem. And yes I have tried a lott. The closet thread I have found might be this one, but that also seems to hang:

So to come to my problem:

I have an ADLINK USB-3488A  USB to GPIB converter. With this there is an Agilent Power-Supply  6655A conected.

I worked with this setup quite well with a Win7-32bit LV2014-32bit system (except that it is an old slow PC). So I wanted to shift to a new system with Win7-64bit and LV2014-64bit were I cannot see the device in my LV-VIs.

All relevant system settings could hopefully be seen in the attached imaged (one for the 32bit and one for the 64bit system).

- I do not see the GPIB device in MAX in the "Geräte und Schnittstellen" (nether in the 32bit or the 64bit system)

- I can do the *IDN?\n in the VISA Interactive Control in both systems

- I see the alias in the 32bit

- do not see the alias  and I nether can directly (with a string constant) talk to the VISA in the 64bit

 

Any sugestions are warmly welcome. I'm at a point were I'm stuck.
