Dan Press Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 Hi guys, I've got a new laptop with a fresh install of LabVIEW 2009 SP1 and associated drivers (MAX, DAQmx, etc). I just downloaded VIPM 3.0 (1280) and it installed just fine. I would expect to be able to launch VIPM as usual and see the list of available packages, but instead I just get the loading screen and Windows tells me that the application has stopped and must be closed. I repeated that 3 or 4 times with the same results. I then uninstalled and reinstalled VIPM. Upon the first launch after the reinstall I got an actual LabVIEW error message. See attached picture for that one. So that should help point to something right? The really strange thing is that I do not always see that error dialog. I tried the old reboot routine too, but got the same result. I can find no error log in the VI Package Manager folder so this must be happening very early in the process. I am running Windows 7x64 but with LabVIEW 2009 SP1 (32-bit) installed. I am running VIPM as Administrator. Happy Bug Fogging! - Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Press Posted March 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 Update: I was able to install and run VIPM 2.0.3 successfully, so I'll use that for now. - Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Kring Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 Hi Dan, Wow, that's a strange one. Can you do a check and see if you can use the Input Device VIs in LabVIEW 2009 SP1 to read the mouse position (try calling "Initialize Mouse.vi")? Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Press Posted March 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 The Input Device VIs in LabVIEW 2009 SP1 to read the mouse position are working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philippe Guerit Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 Dan, What kind of window installation is that laptop running? Is there anything out of the ordinary? Thanks Philippe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Press Posted March 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 The laptop is a Dell Alienware M15x with Windows 7x64 Ultimate factory installed. I hope that Dell is not using some strange installation of Windows, but it is tough to tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
