Why can't national instruments software recognize my CEC GPIB card.

I am trying to use national instruments software with a plug and play cec (Capitol Equipment) PCI GPIB card. The device shows up (as working properly) in device manager. I also downloaded and installed new drivers from the CEC website. However National Instruments software does not recognize the card's existance.

What NI software are you trying to use and what drivers from CEC did you install? Low level NI functions like ibwrt, ibrd, or LabVIEW GPIB functions only work with NI boards. If CEC provides a VISA installation, you should be able to use that and NI VISA calls. Otherwise, you'll have to use the CEC functions.
