MAX does not recognize any harware such as RS232

WinXP device manager recognizes com port. However, MAX nor Labivew do not recognize any hardware. In Configuration panel in MAX, "My System" only contains "Software". How do I repopulate the list? How do I help MAX/Labview discover hardware? Thanks!!

In order to recognize hardware, you have to installed the correct drivers. What is listed under software? For com ports, you need NI-VISA installed. For DAQ cards, you need DAQmx installed. For a GPIB controller, you need NI-488.2 installed.
