Is the support of windows 2003 server planned for GPIB cards?

[beungoud]

Hello,

I am planning the port of a software from windows NT 4 to windows 2003 Server. It uses a NI GPIB card but I don't see any compatibility with windows 2003 Server  . Is the support for this operating system planned?

And if it is planned at what time?

If not, do you have any idea of other GPIB card available on the market?

Thanks

Sorry, but there is no version of the GPIB driver (NI-488.2) for Windows Server 2003 and I've read in our database there is no develop plan.
Latest NI-488.2 driver supporting a given NI GPIB interface on a given OS: http://www.ni.com/support/gpib/versions.htm

Even though the NI PCI-GPIB is not supported on that OS, Windows 2003 Server is very similar to XP. If your not using the x64 edition, then you might be able to install the NI-488.2 Windows XP driver onto Server 2003 and it might work.

Hello,

Does anybody have feedback about using a GPIB PCI under Windows 2003 Server.
I am convinced it works but, if somebody tried it and could tell me if there were any 'strange' behaviours it would be great.

Thanks
