PCMCIA-GPIB Driver for Vista x32 (Is it compatibility issue?)

I have Widows Vista Home Premium x32 on my notebook. After installin LabVIEW 7 Express and the device drivers i came accross some compatibility problems (NIMax could not be started and is going to close etc). The worst problem is my PCMCIA-GPIB card is not working. From some net surfing i came to know that Vista doesn't support it, see e.g http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/5326#toc0. If there is any possibility (any Compatible driver?), kindly help me out. Thanx

No, support for the pcmcia was dropped a while back and is not supported under Vista. LabVIEW 7 itself is not supported on Vista.

Version 8.2.1 was the first version with official Vista support. Of course, you still won't be able to use the pcmcia card.
