usb-6351 not found by max

Max is not finding a device tht it found 1 week ago...  Windows did an update and now this device is not found.

 

I have re-installed the latest version of MAX, Refreshed, and reconnected the hardware.  The system says it is installed but as indicated below, MAX does not see it.

 

Suggestions?

 

thanks

Hi Steve05ram360,

 

Has anything significant changed in your setup since last week when it was working until now? What version of Windows are you running?

 

I think something may have happened to your device loader, so check to be sure that NI Device Loader service is started. Go to Control Panel»Administrative Tools»Services»NI Device Loader. Check to make sure that the status of this service is Started. If it is not, the status for this service will be blank. Highlight NI Device Loader and select the Start Service option in the Services window toolbar. For the changes to take effect, close out of the Services window and restart MAX. 

 

Let me know if this works.

Hi Jason,

 

Yeah, windows update... seems like 75~80% of the time there is a windows update I am fixing something in my setup.  I am forced into these updates at this current position which I do not like.  For me... if it works, leave it alone Smiley Tongue

 

Your suggestion worked, THANKS!
