NiFGEN soft front panel error message

[Dave23]

When I try to run NI-FGEN soft front panel, I get the following message:

"NI-FGEN for DAQ 2.3.0 was found, but it could not be loaded.  To run this software, you need NI-FGEN for DAQ 2.3.0 or higher."

I updated all of my drivers, and could not get rid of the error message.  The arbitrary waveform generator that I am using seems to work fine from within MAX and I have had no problems controlling it from LABVIEW.  Any thoughts?

Kalyan,

I tried reinstalling the driver, and that did not work.  Note also that I tried the "Repair" option on the driver and that did not work either.  I do have Administrator privledges on my computer also.  I will have an actual administrator log on to the administrator account to see if that solves anything.

Hi Dave23

We think this error is related to the Traditional NI-DAQ installation. Please check the version of the nidaq32.dll file on your computer. (right-click properties) of <windows>\system32\nidaq32.dll.

If 'File Version' is not 7.768.3.1 (release 7.3) please try this:

Rename nidaq32.dll.  (ex: nidaq32.old)

Repair for Traditional NI-DAQ.

Go to Add or Remove Programs, Select National Instruments Software, and then select Traditional NI-DAQ 7.4.1 (Legacy) and click on the repair button.
