• OK,  if you switch SATA I/Os  to the legacy mode, then you can use the original Agilent image with Windows XP. Maybe you should start from this point?

• A quick search suggests this is a Matlab compiler runtime library and you can get it from a specific version of Matlab, check this link:

• I tried to run the old hard disk image on the new hardware, but it didn’t work! errors and crashes, which is why I asked for a disk image.

• I grabbed whatever files were available from the HPAK FTP site for these scopes:

  You might want to poke around in the share to see if there is an image you can use for your scope (I have an 54845A) - Another user tried this for his 54832B so maybe it is useful as well:

• The images in the share are going to be whatever HPAK originally offered (or enabled for upgrade) - You don't need a license as they're not general purpose images but instead some form of deployment image (e.g. Ghost) that you write to the device.
  
  As I don't have your scope I can only comment on my experience with 54845A - That was a Ghost image that you needed to boot to MS-DOS with a CDRom attached and then run the Ghost tool to push the image to the drive. My scope was Win98 so I never tried the XP images in the share.
  
  Sorry I can't be more helpful - Hopefully someone else on the thread has used the images and can comment (My post here might help outline the steps - https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/agilent-54835a-scope-(4-channel-1ghz-4gss)-repair-uphack/msg5197191/#msg5197191
  
  Good luck,
