NI PCI-GPIB card not working NI Max or Labview

Hello, 
I have a national instruments PCI-GPIB card. My system specs are Windows 8 PC, 32bit, pentium xeon. I have installed the NI 488.2 16.0.0 as well as NI VISA 16.0 drivers. I have followed correct order of installation, which is to install the drivers first, then the hardware. When I connect the PCI-GPIB card, my windows device manager shows yellow exclamation mark. I then manually choose the PCI-GPIB driver from National Instruments GPIB Interfaces. Till here, no problem.

 

Its' when I open NI MaX, expand Devices and Interfaces and that the card has no name, NI Max gives me no option to search for instruments, or anything. Since the card has no name, I cannot call it using the Visa Resource name in Labview. Any ideas why this is happening?

 

Thank you so much.
