Joe, I have not tried it but I could.
I guess I would download the file from Didier's site, program the EEPROM and give it a shot. It's a 64 KB EPROM going to a 256 KB EPROM. Doesn't sound right to me.

I want to make sure that the NI GPIB-232CV-A will work with the other firmware. Has anyone done this specific model?
