Problem with Mac Powerbook and NI PCMCIA GPIB card

Problem with Mac Powerbook and NI PCMCIA GPIB card

‎11-29-2001 08:27 AM

I am trying to get an NI PCMCIA-GPIB card to work in my Macintosh PowerBook 5300c laptop computer. I'm using OS 8.5.1 and NI-488.2 version 7.6.6 software. I can't get the NI-488.2 driver to communicate with the card without crashing the OS.
Has anyone had a similar experience and fixed the problem?

Hello:

Refer to "Getting Started Manual for PCMCIA-GPIB" ftp://ftp.ni.com/support/manuals/321040b.pdf, Appendix B - Troubleshooting. "What do I do if I have installed the NI-488.2 software and now my Macintosh crashes upon startup?"

Hope this helps. If you have any questions, please let us know. - NI Support
