Need NI-PAL 1.5.0f0

Hello.  We had a working system using a PCI-MXI-2 with a VXI-MXI-2 card, but some fuses had blown on some of the hardware in use.  We've upgraded the computer, but can't get our application to completely work again.  I'm trying to revert all the software back to the version on the old system, but I can't find all the installers.
 
When reading the readme for NI-DAQ 6.8.1, it mentions pre-triggering causing the system to hang, which might be our problem.  It says that we need to get NI-PAL 1.4.1 or higher, which the old system has (1.5.0f0), but the new system does not (1.4.0f1).
 
Where can I get NI-PAL 1.4.1 or higher? Preferably 1.5.0f0, to match the old system exactly.
 
Thanks.

Good morning James,

I suggest you install VXI 3.2.  That version of the VXI driver should solve the pre-triggering issue.  Please let me know if this is not the case.

Have a great day.

Thank you for the reply.  I had VXI 3.2 installed when that problem was happening, but installing the NI-DAQ 6.8.1 corrected the problem, as well as installed the version of PAL I was looking for.  Not sure if it was the pre-triggering issue after all, but matching the newer system's drivers to the older systems worked, and that's all I needed.
