FindLstn Problems.

[kakuni]

I am having problems with the FindLstn command. My code works fine under Win98, but when I run the same code on Windows 2000 there is about a 8-10 second delay for the FindLstn command. No errors are returned and the program runs fine other than the delay. Any suggestions?

You could try:
-Using ibln instead
-Reinstalling NI 488.2

Windows 2000 also has options for application boosting that could be interfering with your application depending how you are programming and making calls.

I believe the 1.x Windows NT driver was slow at performing the FindLstn protocol. The 2.0 version of the driver should be faster. I recommend downloading it from ni.com and trying it.

Thanks for your suggestion, but I am using the old driver because the 2.0 driver doesn't support my old hardware. I have an ISA board, and the 2.0 drivers only support the PCI boards. Do you have any other suggestions? Thanks in advance.
