what do I need to upgrade a PCI-GPIB and a PCMCIA GPIB to win2000

We currently have several desktop computers with PCI-GPIB cards and one laptop with a PCMCIA GPIB+ card, all running Win98. At some time in the future we expect to upgrade these machines to Win 2000. We do use the analyzer function, as well as the "Measurement & Automation Explorer" program. It appears that all I need to do for the desktop machines is download ni488220.exe. However this apparently does not support the PCMCIA GPIB+ card's analyzer function. Could you tell me what software we need, including specific part numbers?

Hi,
Currently there is no support for analyzer functionality in win2000. We are currently workig on the new driver which will make all of your requests possible. I cannot give you a release date, but I can tell you that we are working hard to get this driver completed. If you would like to become part of our beta program, create an email service request at www.ni.com/ask, make the question type gpib, and in the subject put my name "Aaron K." somewhere in the subject line.

Hope this helps out!

Best Regards,
