NI-RIO 4.0 not compatible with 64-bit LabVIEW?

[Mawx]

Hi,

  I have a 7841R multifunction RIO card.  I'm currently installing the evaluation version of LabVIEW to test it out.  I've got 64-bit LabVIEW successfully installed and I had installed NI-RIO 3.6 (which was on the disk that came with the card).  In the process of installing other features (I believe the C interface for FPGA or something) I discovered that I needed NI-RIO 4.0.  I uninstalled NI-RIO 3.6, downloaded NI-RIO 4.0 and now I'm attempting to install it.  I get the following message a few steps into the process:

Important note about NI-RIO support for LabVIEW (64-bit Versions)
A 64-bit version of LabVIEW was detected on your system.  This version of the NI-RIO driver does not support 64-bit versions of LabVIEW.  However, this version of NI-RIO is fully compatible with 32-bit versions of LabVIEW installed on 64-bit operating systems.

Is there a version of NI-RIO 4.0 that supports 64-bit versions of LabVIEW?  If so, could you point me to it?

Or should I install the 32-bit version of LabVIEW?

Thanks for the help!

Cheers,

tom

Hey Tom,

Unfortunately we do not have a RIO driver that is compatible with our 64-bit LabVIEW Development software.  If you need to use the RIO driver, you should install the 32-bit version of LabVIEW and build your applications in that development system.  Sorry for the confusion initially during the installation process!

Not a problem - it all seems to be working now.  Thanks for the help!
