It will still be a visa resource. Look for labview drivers for your specific scope here http://www.ni.com/downloads/instrument-drivers/ or the scope makers' website.

Unfortunately, I can't go back that far but you can post a request to save the 8.2 driver to version 7.0 here: http://forums.ni.com/t5/Version-Conversion/bd-p/VersionConversion

after installed my drivers (i hope to find them) what i have to do?

does someone have an example in labview 7.1 about comunication via usb? in what i must configure my port, etc...

thanks again

USB support was introduced in visa 3.0. I am not sure which version you are using and the how labview 7.1 will work with it!

Here is a tutorial if thats of any help: http://www.ni.com/white-paper/4478/en
