Installed PCI-6025E recognized by Windows XP but only in PXI system by MAX

[magicjoecuda]

I installed a PCI-6025E DAQ board on a Windows XP machine. Upon startup it recognized the new hardware and installed the driver from the NI-DAQ 6.9.3 CD. All seemed to work fine. When I try to bring up the device in MAX it only shows up in the PXI system section. This doesn't assign a device number or allow a test panel. So I don't know how to access the signal from Labview programs. Is there something I haven't done right?

Hello magicjoecuda,

In general it sounds like you have done everything right and it is not that surprising that the 6025E shows up as a PXI device, but it is unexpected that it does nost appear as a DAQ device. I would try 2 things to work around this:

1) Try installing the card in a different PCI slot on the computer.
2) Uninstall the 6.9.3 driver and try installing the newest version of the driver. A link to the newest version of the driver for your board can be found here:
