Inability to install SCXI 1200 in Windows XP

I am trying to use some older NI hardware (SCXI 1000 chassis with SCXI 1200 connected to a parrallel port), and windows XP is unable to detect the hardware. I tried following the SCXI 1200 support pages, but when I enter the add new hardware wizard the 1200 module does not show up. There is a header titled Data Acquisition Devices, but I cannot find any SCXI modules. Are there additional drivers that I have to install for XP? I realize that the equipment is quite old, but I am trying to make everything work without breaking my budget buying new stuff.

Hi,

Unfortunately, the SCXI 1200 will not work with Windows XP. The data acquisition drivers that are required to use this legacy device are not updated for the Windows XP Operating System. I highly recommend upgrading to newer hardware which will allow you to use the newer DAQmx driver and the Windows XP operating system.

Regards,

Hal L.
