trouble with nicfg32.dll using Delphi5 on windows 2000?

[JimBenzinger]

I'm converting a test program in dephi5.0 to windows2000 (was on NT). When I use the latest nidaq32.dll (dated 7/15/2004), I get the following error:

'The ordinal 140 could not be located in the dynamic link library nicfq32.dll'

I copied the above dll's from the NT system32 directory to the windows 2000 computer and the error goes away. However, I get errors back from all calls to the librarys referencing a bad config file (error -10243). The VXI system works fine for all boards except this one (AO-48XDC).

I've re-installed the drivers and software several times without any success.

Any ideas on what I need to do to use this board with windows 2000? We have several systems running NT that work fine so I'm confident the hard is OK.

Thanks

Has anyone used the AO-48XDC with windows2000? - any language? I tried using Borland C++ on this card and I get an error when I call try:

daqStat = AO_Configure(la,chan,polarity,INTERNAL_REF,0,UPDATE_NOW);

returns -10401

- which makes no sense to me. The vxi lib routines all seem to work and return good values. MAX sees and configures the board fine. It only returns an error when I call one of the NIDAQ library routines. I've used implib on the nidaq32 and nidex32 dll's with no change.

Is there an init for the NIDAQ library?
Anyone using this currently that could give me the init steps (order) to get this thing working?

Many thanks in advance!

Well, in case anyone is interested, I have solved this issue. I found a matrix here that listed version 6.9.3 as the proper version to use. Once I downloaded and installed it, things went a lot smoother. MAX picked up the board and put it on the outer leg of the hardware tree. When I called the above routine using the address given in the properties (NOT the VXI address), the call worked.
