visa uninstall Problems

[NatzW]

In windows 2000 ni-vxi/ni-visa3.2 does not seam to have installed
properly - in the respect that many other applications are having
problems locating the visa library andcertain components do not seam
to be installed (eg. T&M explorer). The 1st problem was resolved by
uninstalling via add/remove programms but after doing this 3times Visa
still does not seam toinstall properly. If anyone has any ideas, let
the newbie know:)
Thanks

Hi NatzW,

What order are you installing the hardware and software in. Generally
at National Instruments we recommend that you install the drivers
first and then application software (although quite often during
application software installation if will ask to update your driver
software), and then install the hardware.

If you are installing hardware before you install software then it
will cause problems. If you are getting problems with recognising the
VISA functions from other programs, and reinstalling hasn't helped,
then it is possible that you have a corrupt disk or something. Please
go to the following link to download NI-VISA 3.2 and try installing it
from here.
