| | Using National Instruments Hardware With Virtual PC Please can anyone help? I have some legacy software that runs on Windows 98 and uses a National Instruments data acquisition card. The card plugs into a PCMCIA slot and has appropriate drivers for Windows 98. Does anyone know if this will work using Virtual PC? Thanks. |

| | Re: Using National Instruments Hardware With Virtual PC There's no way to do that with VPC, it only emulates a certain set of hardware and can't be expanded. None of the virtualization solutions will work for this, you'll have to run it on real hardware. -- Bob Comer On Tue, 3 Mar 2009 01:50:03 -0800, Dazed and Confused <Dazed and Confused@xxxxxx> wrote: Quote: >Please can anyone help? > >I have some legacy software that runs on Windows 98 and uses a National >Instruments data acquisition card. > >The card plugs into a PCMCIA slot and has appropriate drivers for Windows 98. > >Does anyone know if this will work using Virtual PC? > >Thanks. |

Virtual PC, VMWare / Virtual Box etc all emulate a specific set of hardware which cannot be changed: http://vpc.visualwin.com/ngfaq.aspx#8 -- Mark Rae ASP.NET MVP http://www.markrae.net |
