I updated my Win7 today (9/25/2014) with MS latest update KB2998527 that's supposed to just be a Russian timezone update.

Update -
I've uninstalled the MS Update and tried to repair the DAQmx device drivers (although I must admit, it's not clear to me that I've done this correctly) and I'm back to the point where neither my application nor NIMax recognizes the device. NIMax shows the device listed but when I try the self-test I get an error message -88705 (see attached screen shots.)
I'm about to uninstall everything NI and re-install from scratch unless someone's got a better suggestion ...
thx,

Hello T,
I apologize for the inconvenience this is causing. My first recommendation would be to reinstall the most recent version of DAQmx and then restart your computer.Hopefully, this will solve your issue.

When I tried to re-install the DAQmx 9.9.0 (according to the driver search I did is the latest), I select typical install and the setup then says that no software will be installed or removed.
I tried doing a repaire through add/remove programs for the NI software and some items got "repaired" (or just re-installed) but it wasn't until I re-installed the MS update that the interface to the device started working again. Very weird, especially for an update that's supposedly only for a Russian time zone change!
In any case, I'm now seeing a periodic error 200290 that I normally don't see suggesting that something is stil slowing my system down when it's talking to the DAQ device.
I will try removing everything via the DAQmx 9.9.0 installer by deselecting all items, then try re-installing and see if that improves things.
Thank you for the response and suggestion Collin,

Not sure why this version didn't show up in my searches, but THANK You!
After performing the re-installs, etc., the system now seems to be behaving as before.
I will put this upgrade to v14.1 on my list of things to do once I get past my critical path in my development cycle.
Thanks for the help,
