Drivers and Software
If you purchased a system preinstalled with Windows, your hard drive includes a directory called
images in its root that contains software and soft copies of manuals for the peripherals. The
directory structure under the images directory is logically organized into several levels.
In the images directory are drivers and NIDRIVERS directories. The drivers directory
contains driver installers for the system peripherals. These files and directories are copied
exactly from the manufacturer distribution disks, so the naming conventions vary from
peripheral to peripheral. The
NIDRIVERS directory contains the GPIB and PXI Platform
Services drivers preinstalled on the controller.
