Will Labview 5.0 work on Windows XP

[MrHonda]

I am currently upgrading systems to Windows XP and need to know if my old Labview 5.o version is compatible with Windows XP. Does anyone know? The application I created on Windows 98 is currently operating on Windows XP with out any concerns. Future upgrades will need to be implemented inthe near future and I will need to run labview on a Windows XP computer. Any suggestions?

Hello,

LabVIEW 5.0 is not officially supported on Windows XP, as it was released before XP was released. However, it will most likely work, other than a "Wrong OS" message that you may recieve during installation. I have successfully installed LabVIEW 5.0 on my XP machine and not run into any trouble. However, you should be aware that issues you encounter may not be supported. Please see these KnowledgeBases on our website for more information:

I hope this helps! Have a great day!
