How Can I use an old DAS-16 ISA Card w/ LabVIEW?

I'm trying to use an old non-Plug-and-Play ISA DAQ card (Keithley-Metrabyte DAS-16) in an older Pentium PC, with LabVIEW 7.1.
 
NI MAX doesn't recognize the device.  Do I need a special driver or do I need an older version of NI-DAQ (currently I have NI-DAQmx 7.20 installed).  Also, do I need to use a specific base address for teh board?  Currently my board settings are:  Base Addr=330h,  DMA=3.
 
I appreciate any help.

Your expectations are unrealistic. NI MAX is not designed to, nor should it be expected to, detect and configure third party DAQ devices. It is only for NI boards. Nor can you use NI-DAQ or any other driver from NI for non-NI boards. You can go to Keithley-Metrabyte and see what drivers they have for their board. I know that Measurement Computing also has/had a DAS-16. You might want to try them as well.
