Impossible to install NI-VISA Driver under Windows 7

Hi all

Software isn't exactly my strength, so I apologize if this question is badly phrased or trivial.

I am trying to use NI-VISA 4.6 to create a driver for a USB mouse.  My ultimate goal is to read the RAW files positional USB rather than read the position of the mouse on the screen.  This way, I will be able to use the mouse to measure distance without having to worry about the cursor passes at the edge of the screen.  My VI will work pretty much along the lines of this one, which was kindly donated by Intaris on this thread.

I'm running in the driver installation problems, that I created with most of the time described NI-VISA here.  I created the driver .inf and copied in C:\Windows\inf.  Since I am on Windows 7, I copied the Vista driver rather than the driver for earlier versions of windows (another user on the tutorial I linked above says it worked).  I chose my .inf file and clicked "install" from the menu drop-down of the right button of the mouse.  I received a message the first error while I tried saying that the driver was not checked and proceed in any case.  No .pnf file was created in the inf folder (as I believe she should have).  I tried updating the driver for this particular mouse for the new driver, I created in the Device Manager.  Windows has resisted, saying that it had already installed the best driver to work.

So now I know exactly what to do.  I think that other people have figured out how to make it work, but I am helpless as to what I can do differently.  Is - anyone out there know what could be wrong?  Is there must be a .pnf file in order to get the driver to work?

Thank you

Thanks for the help everyone.  I think I finally found the solution .

I did a lot of trial and error with Windows and finally I got a driver that I created in NI VISA is accepted.  Since it has been hacked together, I have a problem determining the stages that I have to work.  I'm not sure that this list of steps is quite necessary or complete, but in the interest of helping people with a similar problem, I'll try to explain what I did to get the mouse to be read.

The key was probably uninstall the mouse that I wanted to use for the project.  I did this in Device Manager and then found the USB root hub that was running my camera.  I have updated the driver through here rather than through the section 'mouse '.  Information on the procedure to be followed are explained in detail in these two knowledge base articles:

http://digital.NI.com/public.nsf/allkb/28C5E7D2E9FBB4CC86257536005A3692

http://digital.NI.com/public.nsf/allkb/3C335141B64C038886257141000036F2?OpenDocument

I created the NI-VISA drivers and saved in the default folder (under my documents / National Instruments/NI-VISA) and they installed from there.  I don't know if the installation step was necessary.  Then I updated the drivers as explained in the second article knowledge base related to listed.

I think that the crucial stage is uninstalling the mouse in Device Manager.  This could be the "firmware" mentioned in the article by following the link, but the formulation knowledge base is so ambiguous that I thought I have to uninstall the drivers.

Thanks again for the help

  • System crash when I install the bluetooth driver in windows 8.1

    HP Pavilion 15-e034tx

    When I install bluetooth driver in system failure windows 8.1 with this error "unhandled Thread Exception system.

    Bluetooth hardware ID: PCI\VEN_1814 & DEV_3298 & SUBSYS_18EC103C & REV_00

    Sir where is Bluetooth for Windows 8.1 driver?

    can someone help me please?

    Hello everyone I found the solution to this problem of Bluetooth. First of all, I want to share the essue of Blutooth hand in windows 8.1.

    History is actually a bit interesting: Microsoft has fixed a bug in the rollup of November which exposed a bug previously hidden in Bluetooth drivers for Ralink/Mediatek, resulting in all the world with a fully-updated Windows 8.1 and Ralink bluetooth (very common in low price/low-end systems) to BSoD unless the bumps users to a system restore point before updates of November. So yes, there are sometimes dangers for fixing bugs.

    Basic requirements:

    1. all drivers for HP laptop, BIOS and windows 8.1 implemented to date with the latest updates.

    File Requirements:

    1 8.1 Windows file update kb2917488 - x 64 (download link)

    http://www.4shared.com/RAR/CP-Ov9Hv/blutooth_update_fix.html

    2. Ralink software Bluetooth driver (windows 8 or 8.1 Windows)

    Basic steps:

    First check windows update, download and install any updates. Also download and install the latest driver for windows 8.1

    Download file update 8.1 for Windows kb2917488 - x 64 in 4shared link. (File name: Bluetooth fix)

    kb2917488 - x 64 Windows 8.1 updated in.cab(cabinet file) If you need to know how to install the .cab file installation.

    The .cab file installation steps

    Open the administrator command prompt and run the following command to install and integrate the Archives of Cabinet:

    Pkgmgr/ip/m:.cab / quiet

    Or,

    start/wait pkgmgr/ip/m:.cab / quiet

    Replace with the path (location) for the file .cab and with the file name of the cab without parentheses. If the CAB file is in the current directory (same directory where the command is executed, the path can be ignored.

    Example: pkgmgr /ip /m:C:\Users\User update fix\windows8.1-kb2917488-x64_43f3b89601d407a00cbf87297ab1ddb0ba1c4619.cab/quiet

    (If you do not understand the method of installing the .cab file search for it on google)

    This command silently install the Windows kb2917488 8.1 update file - x 64 in your system... complete installing the automatic system successfully reboots (wait automatic reboot)

    Now you can install your old windows 8 Ralink Driver Bluetooth software or update the latest driver with HP Support Assistant in windows 8.1.

    (Note: install all the drivers to run as Administration) (Sorry for the bad English)

  • Satellite P750: Impossible to install the Bluetooth Stack on Windows 7 (x 64) driver

    Hello.

    I own a * Satellite P750-02 t * (part No. * PSAY3A - T 02 001 *).

    In the order I did:

    (1) I formatted the HARD drive and reinstalled the operating system of * Windows 7 x 64 Ultimate SP1 *.

    Then I downloaded * ONLY the BIOS and drivers * of [his downloads page | http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/computers/satellite/p750/psay3a-02t001/download?os=25]:

    (2) I've updated the BIOS for * v1.90* (the laptop came with v1.80)

    (3) I have installed all drivers:
    -LAN and WiFi
    -Chipset Intel latest (available)
    -all video drivers (NVIDIA Graphics, Intel HD Graphics and Intel HDMI)
    -Card reader
    -Realtek HD Audio (later)
    -Synaptics Touchpad
    -USB3.0
    -IR
    TV tuner
    However, I * cannot install Bluetooth driver (v8.00.06 (T) *)...

    When I run the installation program of the [aforementioned page | http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/computers/satellite/p750/psay3a-02t001/download?os=25] it detects partially *'Bluetooth USB Controller-10 TOSHIBA'* (USB\VID_0930 & PID_0215 & REV_001)
    and then the installation freezes simply displaying + "install the Bluetooth driver. Please wait +.' and stay like that forever...

    I also tried to download a driver [another location | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/bluetooth/index.php?page=download-toshiba] for laptops TOSHIBA - v8.00.02 (T):
    and followed installation instructions displayed under "Details".
    but he had the same result: the installer simply crashes...

    Install fix (* KB978258 *) recommended it did not work either - the message "+ update is not applicable to your computer +" appears.
    And I understand why - this fix is [already included: http://download.microsoft.com/download/E/B/A/EBA55FE2-373A-4351-9346-6D762B79AA69/Updates%20in%20Win7%20and%20WS08R2%20SP1.xls] in Service Pack 1 for MS Windows 7.

    I spent hours searching the Internet for a solution. Although there are some similar cases, none of the recommendations actually worked. I tried to install:
    -WiFi driver before installing the Bluetooth (someone suggested that these two are parts of the same card);
    -Repeat Mode Setup without failure;
    -* Toshiba value added package * hoping that somehow these tools will kick in.
    Nothing has worked...

    It is interesting to note that when, in the interests of experimentation, I tried to run installation for my generic Bluetooth adapter (using the driver [for non-TOSHIBA notebooks | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/bluetooth/index.php?page=download]) then everything runs smoothly!

    * Using connection Bluetooth on this laptop is absolutely crucial for TI
    I hope that I won't get back this beautiful laptop as I know that TOSHIBA is one of the best manufacturers and I am sure, that there is a solution to this problem.

    Thank you very much.
    Evgeny.

    You can use the key combination FN + F8 to toggle WLAN?
    You can also see BT symbol there?

    Before you begin installation battery BT try to activate BT module by using the FN + F8 key combination.

    Generally avoid some problem with it. Toshiba BT stack is tested on al models proposed by Toshiba and fireplace installation BT has, in my view, nothing to see what version of Win7 you use.

    Do not return this laptop. It has to do is just install drivers, tools and utilities. Please note: BT stack is included in the recovery image so BT must work.

    Also, I must say that OS installation of drivers, tools and utilities on Toshiba laptop must / should be installed in the correct order. Many tools can work only and must be installed on basic stuff that can be installed with other specific tools of Toshiba.

    Please send a few comments if this FN + F8 will work.

  • Downgraded Acer Aspire V3 575 G for windows 7, but impossible to install the wifi driver

    Hi, I got a new laptop yesterday, the model is Acer Aspire V3 575 G 73ZZ. I didn't like the 10 preinstalled with windows so I installed a new copy of windows 7 on it. However, once the installation is complete, none of my drivers work. I went looking for the drivers for my model, but they were all for windows 10 and were not compatible with my laptop. I tried to install the drivers wifi during the night, but none of them work on my laptop.

    Does anyone know what wifi Drivers to install so it can run on windows 7?

    I found the solution to my problem! I did a search on acer and discovered that my device is using Win Driver Atheros Wireless LAN (NFA344) 10 64-bit, so I did a search on Google to find the version of Win 7 64 bit for the driver and came across this page: http://support.lenovo.com/sg/en/downloads/ds105865

    Even if the driver is Lenovo, but I ran on my Acer Aspire V3 575 G and it worked perfectly. I am able to connect to the wifi now!

    Hello

    I have recently re installed my dual boot Linux/Windows. Linux works fine, but under windows, it refuses to install the LAN Driver (Ethernet controller).

    I installed before the chipset and it still does not work. All the drivers have been downloaded from the Web from Toshiba website.

    Any idea on what could be the problem?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I know that this question;
    I think you just tried to install a LAN driver is not compatible.

    The A100-455 seems to belong to the PSAA9E series.
    If you choose this series then you will find two different Lan drivers;
    Intel v9.2.24 is a driver Pro1000 and Intel v8.0.43.0 is a driver of Pro100.

    Check both!

    You're right, it seems that the laptop Satellite L850-1DT was equipped with the Atheros WLan card and the Atheros WLan driver should be right.
    This Atheros card also supports Bluetooth function and what an additional driver must be installed for both WLan + BT working.
