This question is about HP hardware, but I think that it makes sense asking here since there maybe some NI software available as a solution.
I have an old system composed by an HP E1383A VXI ISA Card Interface (witch I have no drivers for them, and can't find anywhere, for any operating system) and an HP E1326B Multimeter on the same system that I can't have access to it.
I was able, however, to establish some sort of connection with bits and pieces of a program named EPConnect from Radisys (dated 1994) on Windows 98, but it seems that this program and drivers are for Windows 3.11 and I can't see the board any where on the device manager of Windows 98.
I also have found drivers for the multimeter board (HP E1326B) on:

but, if I can't get access to the ISA Board (HP E1383A), how can I have access to the multimeter functions?
Is there any way that I can resolve this problem? On any operating system? How can I have access to the ISA board and the multimeter?
As a last technical detail, I have found that I can communicate with the ISA board through:
ISA Card I/O: 0x4230
VXI Module Port Address Base: 0x8230
IRQ = 10
Using the Radisys software (I can see that the board is really there).
Any help would be very appreciated, and thank you in advance for reading,
