Labview crashing, attempting to troubleshoot

Have labview 5.0, running on a beige G3 Mac OS9. Swapped HD out to a Blue White G3, programs keep crashing. I updated the drivers thinking it's just a bus speed issue. Any advice other than updating drivers? The drivers I used were the GPIB PCI drivers for OS9(1.2 etc). Are theses the right ones?

Hi Bryant,

The latest GPIB driver available for OS9 is NI-488.2 (Mac OS) Version 7.6.7 for Mac OS.  What happens when LabVIEW crashes?  Do you get an error log?  If so, please post it.  Does the computer freeze or lock up?  Do you get any error messages?

thanks for the response, I did download the drivers but just wasn't sure if that was the complete issue. It appears that it was, as it works fine now. Only thing was that without the machine(testing equipment) to check at the time, I was pretty much just grasping at straws. I apparently grabbed the right one. Thanks for the quick response.
