mindstorm software conflict "resource files not found"

[Raynier]

Hi All,

my apologies if this is addressed elsew in the forum - searched but did not find any entries.

I am co-teaching a robotics class to middle school students (Lego FLL) and a class to the high school students using LabView 2009 + Lego kit. After installing the Labview environment I (as well as my co-teachers) can no longer run the Mindstorms software. THe error reported is bout resource files not found.

Co any one shed some light on how to have both environments co-exist on the same laptop?

Many thanks

Hi there. Not a problem.  This is probably a known conflict between MINDSTORMS 1.0 and LabVIEW.  It can be fixed easily.  Please see http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/4B0C1BBDA9CFEBE7862573D0005D93C4

This might have also affected MINDSTORMS 1.1 but I can't recall.

Hi Joel -

Many thanks for the pointer to the page. While not exactly the error I am getting, I do suspect it has something to do with incompatible libraries so I will give try to follow the guidelines in the page you refered to.

I'll post my findings in this thread.
