Using PCI-5411 with Windows 7

Solved!
Go to solution

As WinXp is not supported by Microsoft any more, I need to replace the PC running my experiment with a new one running Win7. 

Is it possible to drive the NI-PCI5411 under Win7? On the topic, I have found some ambiguities in different documents:

in this one

http://ftp.ni.com/support/softlib//Signal_Generators/NI-FGEN/NI-FGEN%2016.0/readme.htm

NI-5411 is listed as compatible with Win7(64 bit) and reported in the list of compatible hardware.

Somewhere else, like here http://www.ni.com/download/ni-fgen-16.0/6176/en/ 

it is written that is compatible only with WinXP.

At the end, can I use NI-5411 with Win7 (and Labwindows/CVI 2013)? 

Thanks

Regards

Hi llobs, 

 

The NI-PCI 5411 is not compatibile with Windows 7. Furthermore the NI 5411 has reached EOL/Obsolescence in 2004.

 

I see the ambiguity you mention in the readme you have posted and have filed a Corrective Action Request to fix this documentation issue.
