Well, we have to start with the stupid things.

1.  Is the instrument on?

2.  Is the instrument setup to use the 488.2 bus?

3.  Are there other instruments also conencted?  If so, do you have duplicate GPIB addresses?

It should be noted that presence or lack thereof of LabVIEW drivers is irrelevant to MAX seeing the instrument.
