Please don't attach proprietary file formats. It seems there is a problem with the mnu file pointing to to the functions in tktdsxxx.llb. One way to fix it is to go to Tools>Advanced>Edit Palette Set. You can browse to the palettes with the missing items and do an Insert>VIs to select the VIs in the llb and then delete the icons with the question mark.

probably installed the instrument driver one level too deep, Depending on how you unzipped the file.

Albert,

 

I installed the driver using the 'Find Instrument Drivers' option and saw the same thing.
