NI PXI-5152

I have never been able to get calibration executive to run these digitizers.  It always times out and gives a calibration error "Max Time exceeded before operation completed".  I also had issues with it not completing the self test yesterday.  I found a driver called NI-Scope and installed it.  Now it passes self test but still times out on the first step.  The 33250A is initialized by cal exec and I'm using short BNC's.  I checked the output tracking on my power splitter and it's good.  Any suggestions?

In case anyone wanted to know the answer to that question here is what I got from National Instruments.
"I discovered that this error is an issue that we know about and are currently working to fix.  The fix will be coming in a future release of Cal Exec, but I am not positive of when at this point.  We do have a way that you can fix it now: go to ni.com/idnet and install the latest HP 33120A IVI driver on top of Cal Exec.  This is listed in our database as a work around for the issue, so hopefully this should make it work in your version of Cal Exec."
