Blue Screen of Death

[buckyballer]

Hi,

After a day of successfully testing my program. I restarted my computer and the next time that I tried to run my program I received the blue screen of death. I am running LabVIEW 8.5 on 64-bit Windows 7. I have seen that the gpib-usb-b driver can give the blue screen of death, but that shouldn't be the case for me because according to the windows I am using version 3.1.0 which should be stable right? I also get a blue screen of death when I start NI-MAX. Any thoughts on what could be wrong? Thank you for your consideration!

Hi buckyballer,

One of the possible causes for the blue screen would be the LabVIEW and DAQmx version compatibility with Windows 7. The earliest version of LabVIEW that is compatibile with Windows 7 is 2009SP1. You can see version compatiblity at this link here:

I hope this helps,
