I updated my Win7 today (9/25/2014) with MS latest update KB2998527 that's supposed to just be a Russian timezone update.
After rebooting, the device was detected by Windows but when NIMAX is run, it failes the self-test and NIMAX reported that it either wasn't present or was not configured/installed properly. My Labview application complained that the device was not recognized.
Rebooted several times to no avail.
Verified the device was working properly using another computer that did not have this update applied.
Attempted a system restore but after Windows came back up, it reported that it was unable to complete the system restore However NIMAX now recognizes the device and the test panel can be used to view data. The Labview application software I have developed no longer complains that it can't communicate with the device but it's very slow now.
Eventhough Windows reported the system restore failed, the system restore dialog indicates that the restore did complete and now there is an undo-restore point. The system update KB2998527 is still listed as being installed successfully in the Windows update history log.
Any suggestions for next steps to fix this problem?
