Unambiguously NO. There's no software support for the 82335 on NT and, given

Please note that MXD does not claim any support for the INES card. It may
work or may not.

Can anyone provide any way of getting an HPIB board (HP 82335) to
function under Windows NT 4.0. We have three of these boards and are
moving our Engineering dept. over to NT 4.0 shortly. The documentation
for HP Vee 4.0 states that we need to upgrade our boards to an HP 82341
but no explanation is given as to why. I'm hoping someone has found a
workaround to get the older boards to be recognized in NT 4.0. Any help
would be appreciated.
Thanks
Darcy
