Someones knows if is possible integrate labview 6.0 with matrox genesis Lc ?.

You should be able to use LabVIEW 6.0 and any hardware in you system as long as it has a dll that you can call. Some vendors also provide VI libraries that call the dll for you. I'm not sure if Matrox does, but you should be able to call their dll. However, you need to make sure that you are making the correct calls and giving it the right parameters. An easier way to solve this problem would be to use one of NI's IMAQ boards which have built in VI's, but it still should be possible to use your Matrox card.

Hope that helps.
