NIMAX SysapiDiscovery plugin exception

I was trying to update our system from Labview 2013 to 2015. I installed Labview 2015 and NISE first. The system was still working fine after those. However, after installing HSDIO driver, NIMAX suddenly couldn’t recognize the devices. After I boot up, it says that  it’s finding new PCI devices etc, and then goes to a window that asks for the driver locations. So I restored the system back to before the new installations. After the restore and opening NIMAX, I get an error when I click the Devices and Interfaces. This is what the log summary about it says:

 

Process: NIMax.exe

I tried to reinstall the drivers, but it didn’t work. I also tried to repair NIMAX, but still no change. Please help me figure this out quickly.

What PCI do you have?  What version of HSDIO were you trying to install?  What version of NI MAX do you have?

All our drivers were 2014 vesion (HSDIO, DCPower, NI-switch, DMM, NIMAX). I upgraded to Labview 2015 and was installing the drivers individually.I started with NI-Switch 15 and then HSDIO 15.

Can you send screenshots of what you're seeing in Windows Device Manager and NI MAX?  Also, what PCI hardware (model number) do you have?
