How to install and configure NI Visa Server without having to install MAX?

[VRMan]

Hi,

I need to install NI Visa Server on a computer so that remote systems can connect to the devices connected to it. However, the flash-drive on the computer is marked as "removable media" by the operating system which is causing the MAX installer to error out (this is a known problem with standard windows installers and removable media).

Before pursuing a hardware change, I was wondering if there was a way to install and configure NI Visa Server on the embedded computer without having to install or configure through MAX?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hello!

Your system should appear under remote systems and then you can right click on the software folder and install software. Our 8145s for instance have compact flash drives and this process works. Could you give me more details on your hardware? Are you getting an error message when you try to install the software?
