On a related note, I saw the behaviour described by the OP when trying to use the 2012 reimaging tool under Windows XP Pro (did not recognize the cRIO, but the older update tool did). I did not encounter any documentation for this application that stated what OS was required, so I wasn't really suprised that it didn't work under XP. Using a different laptop with a Windows 7 OS the same 2012 reimaging tool was able to recognize the cRIO.

It's entirely possible that there was something else going on (non-obvious adapter differences between the two laptops, etc.). Has anyone been able to get it to work under Windows XP? Or found any documentation stating that it shouldn't/won't?
