I have MATLAB R2008b version running on Windows Vista. I am trying to use my Measurement Computing USB1408fs DAQ device with this. I have administrator privileges.
I confirmed if MATLAB is detecting the device:
>> out = daqhwinfo;
>> out.InstalledAdaptors
ans =
'mcc'
'parallel'
'winsound'
I registered the device:
daqregister('mcc');
After this I closed MATLAB and restarted MATLAB but I get an error after running the digitalio command.
>> digitalio('mcc',1);
??? Error using ==> digitalio.digitalio at 115
MCC: Invalid board number
Please respond. This works perfectly on another computer with Windows XP on it.

Did you inquire to MC whether the board was compatible with Vista or if new drivers are available?
I know my USB-1608FS works with XP and I was very upset to learn that MC does not support Linux!

I don't have that particular board, but I do have 2 MCC devices.
Often running the InstaCal program (MCC's testing program) will fix
problems.
Good luck,

Error # 1 is definitely bubbling up from the Measurement Computing InstaCal driver. First, close MATLAB and Launch InstaCal. Be sure the DAQ board tests OK (can flash the LED, for example) in InstaCal, and note the logical board number assigned. Then close InstaCal and re-launch MATLAB ... insure that the MATLAB aplication references that particular logical board number.
For Vista-32, InstaCal 5.80 or later is needed.
A non-software cause for error 1 could be the case here. Such as the PC's USB ports turning power off to the port, or an ground loop with the external signals affecting the ground of the USB bus. Try the MATLAB application with all signal wires disconnected from the USB DAQ board.
