Creating installer asks for unknown distribution

I'm creating an installer (Labview 9) for a Windows executable that uses serial ports.

As "Additional installers" i'm adding LV9 Runtime Engine, NI-Serial and NI-VISA Runtime. Is that correct?

 

But the main problem is: when i try to build the installer i get error "LabVIEW cannot locate the source installer for a component necessary to build this installer", and it pretends "National Instruments Device Drivers - November 2009" distribution. I tried to insert all NI Developer Suite DVDs from 3rd and 4th quarter 2009 updates, which i previously used to install NI stuff on this PC, but none works...

I just ran into this problem (but with 8.5 not 9). It should be on one of the CDs. I don't know how the 2009 CDs are set up, but with 8.5 I put the main CD in that included everything on it (drivers etc). Then when this error came up, I browsed for the location. I went into drive(whatever drive letter is your cd drive) and looked in the signal express folder. In there you will find the file nidist.id. This is the file you need
