First after reading this can you recommend a more appropriate group? Forum?
I have a program that was running on a Windows 98 computer, it died.
The program controls an HP 3330B Automatic Synthesizer and a 3570A Network Analyzer using GPIB.
I have installed the harddrive with all the software in a computer running Windows XP.
Looking at files, the National Instruments card Software says
95, 95 and 2000, I see nothing about our original software.Is there a chance the software will run under XP?
I'm over my head here so be gentle and pedantic.
I don't know how to run the software from the slave drive.
Do I need EXE (run) it again, Since it's on the slave drive?
There are two programs needed, A National Instruments GPIB program for the card installed in the computer and the program written for us, I guess you could call it a USER INTERFACE.
National Instruments Measurement and Automation 2.0 Is the software for the GPIB pcb installed
At first attempt to run the Frequency Sweep program, or the Piezo Characterization program, I get a run time error 53, GPIB-32dll not found.
Do I need to reinstall the National instrument software?
Do I copy both programs to the master Harddrive and EXE them?
Your help and prayers are appreciated :-)
I would be great to get this working, It will measure RLC circuits and then the data can be manipulated in Excel to make graphs.
Thanks, Mikek
