NI-5911 failing resources test

[eric u]

I just upgraded to the latest version of niscope (2.6.1f7) and now I'm getting failures on niScope_init. The scope soft panel will usually run some number of times after a reboot. It also fails the resource test in the measurement and automation explorer. It tells me I don't have enough memory or disk space which seems to disregard approximately 600megs of free ram and 100 gigs of free disk space. I see that this was occurring with the previous versions of niscope -- I'm running on a 1.2gHz Athlon. Apparently ni hasn't fixed the problem.

Eric,

The problem you are seeing sounds like a device resource problem which should be independent of NI-SCOPE. Does the NI-SCOPE Soft Front Panel ever give you a failure? If so, what is the error code it gives you? About how many times does it take before the error occurs?

The issue with disk space/memory seems odd. NI-Software usually only checks these things when you are running an installer of some sort. When is this error occuring/what program is throwing it?

My suggestion without having further information would be to uninstall NI-SCOPE completely (view the NI-SCOPE readme for instructions on doing this, uninstall the card, perform a clean reboot, install the card, then install the latest version of NI-SCOPE again.
