It might be possible that TekVISA is conflicting with NI-VISA. Normally only one version of VISA can be installed on a system, however newer versions of HP-VISA, and from what it sounds like Tek-VISA can be installed as a secondary VISA to NI-VISA.
It might be possible though that this is causing the problems you are describing. The good news is that you can use NI-VISA to communicate with your Tektronix scope via the Ethernet. In the Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX) right click on Devices and Interfaces and select Create New>VISA TCP/IP Resource.
