GPIB USB problem

[becidea]

Hello everone,

I am using NI USB GPIB. But each time I have to restart my computer to have connection with the devices. I have re-install my windows 7 and driver, the this problem occured. What can be the reason for that. I am pulling out the USB, and then Plug in to PC, it doesn't work, I need to restart my pc.

Best.

You could have a bad device. You could have a bad USB port (have you tried another port). Your USB port may not be providing enough power (do you have other devices connected that may be drawing a lot of power). You could have a bad installation of NI-488. Try uninstalling NI-488 and reinstalling it. Have you verified you have the version compatible with Windows 7? The latest version for Windows is 2.8.1: http://joule.ni.com/nidu/cds/view/p/id/2315/lang/en

I uninstalled and installed again and the driver is the latest driver. I was using the same driver before without any problem. But I didn't try any other USB port. I will try that one. Now I am having measurement test.
