PCI-GPIB Windows 2000 NT Hardware Drivers

I'm trying to connect up an PCI-GPIB card into a computer running an old OS (Windows 2000 SP 4). It does need to be the old OS, due to the software I need to run on it. I've tried installing both NI-488.2 1.3 and 1.2, and whilst both install, the hardware still says it's missing the drivers. When I try to get it to install the drivers from the folders created when installing NI488.2 it is unable to locate the drivers. Has anyone any advice or guidance on what I'm doing wrong or why this isn't working?

Hi CTumilson,

 

Which piece of hardware are you trying to connect and what software are you using with it?

I'm trying to connect a HP5890 GC to work with Chemstation via IO libraries. I've now got the NI PCI-GPIB working with the computer, but I can't get the Agilent software IO Libraries to work with the NI PCI-GPIB.

 

At the risk of going off the original topic, has anyone had experience in trying to combine the Agilent software with the NI card? I've found a couple of threads on the forums but none work for me. I'm starting to think the two might be incompatible.
