Does it have an NI TNT chip on it?  The "old" NI GPIB cards used the TI 
GPIB controller chip, and I don't think John's driver will work (well, 
if at all) with that.

There's actually four different NI cards; the really old NEC-based 
ones, the TI based ones, the TI based ones with the GPIB accelerator 
chip and the TNT based cards.
