Does anyone have experience with NI-656x boards using NI-HSDIO and running 64-bit Windows 7?

Are there any known compatibility issues  with this setup between Windows Xp 32 bit and Windows 7 64 bit?

thanks

Hey JohnCC,

NI-HSDIO 1.7 is the first version of the HSDIO driver that supports 64-bit Windows 7. If you are starting out with a clean Windows 7 machine, and install 1.7, you should not have any compatibility issues. As with all NI drivers, it is a good idea to first install the driver without the hardware installed, and once the driver has completed its installation then install the hardware.

Are you having any specific issues, or just checking to see that the board will work in your Windows 7 (64-bit) machine? I hope this helps. Please let us know if you have any further questions or concerns. Thanks, and have a great day.

Regards,

DJ L.

We're contemplating moving our 32 bit Xp app to 64 bit Windows 7 and are trying to anticipate obstacles that might pop up.

thanks for your quick response
