Problem installing AT-GPIB/TNT on Win2K system

It fails the third test in get Getting Started wizard with an error message: Unable to correctly access NI-488.2M driver for Windows 95 (gpibmngr.dll). See attached file.
There are no conflicts and the jumpers in the card are set correctly.
NI support sent a method to completely clear all NI software (including deleting registry entries etc.), but to no avail.
It seems to me as if the computer is looking for a Win95 driver, which it shouldn't! The computer was a Win95 machine before being upgraded to Win2k.

Any ideas???

Hi Davide,

Here is another discussion forum post that address the same issue. It seems that reinstalling the latest driver fixed the problem. Here's the link to the driver download page: GPIB Installation/Configuration Troubleshooter

Give this a shot and hopefully it will work for you too!
