4472 doesn't seem to work on PC without labview

Hello,
 
I have a PC that does not have Labview installed.  It has a 4472 pci card and all the drivers and NI-DAQ installed.  When I run an executable on this PC, the executable should call by reference a vi that I wrote that uses the AI config, AI Start, etc......vis to gather data from the card.  However this vi does not execute when I run it.  It seems to work fine on a pc with labview.  As far as I know, NI-DAQ should have all the drivers and libraries for the card.  I've tried several versions of NI-DAQ including the legacy and 6.9 and 7.3.  Am I missing anything else that I need, seems like I am missing libraries or something.  The test panel for the 4472 card seems to work so I know the drivers are working.  The vis were written with labview 6.1.
 
Thanks for any help.

Any error messages show up?

Did you include the LV Run Time Engine (RTE) with the exe build or install the RTE separately on the PC. The RTE is required in one form another to execute the program.

Lemme clarify,  I do have the RTE installed.  My executable runs but the vi it tries to call doesn't.  The vi it is calling contains the AI config, AI start vi's which i think is causing the problem.  Hope this clears things up.

THanks

Bump for monday.

After further investigation, seems like it is having problems with the vi AI Control.  It says an error occurred calling the external subroutine.

You should have added the NIDAQ vi's to the executable, The driver installation does also the installation of the vi's but only for the labview version present on your system which is none.

I Tried adding lvdaq.dll to the executable because that seems to be the library that these AI Config vi's call.

Hi Atapi,

What is the error message you're getting?  Could you post a screenshot?

I'd recommend having both systems have the same version of NI-DAQ, whatever they may be.  The most recent version of NI-DAQ that is supported for LabVIEW 6.1 is NI-DAQ 7.4 (not 7.4.1) 

Thanks,
mike
