Data Capture is via a PCI-MIO-16E-4 DAQ card, through a SCXI-1000 chassis.

Hello again!
Although there doesn't seem to be any real issues regarding running an AV simultaneously with LabVIEW, problems can occur on an individual case for case basis as i'll attempt to explain.
By using the LabVIEW coding effectively, you can use the DAQ board counters as timers, meaning that the data can be acquired to the card at the required rate, and held in a buffer. A problem may occur if the buffer fills in between the PC removing the data from it. This may be affected by the AV running.
Therefore, possible solutions could be to start with, evaluating whether the buffer size and sample rate are compatible and that your LabVIEW code is correct to use the onboard counters.
Otherwise, the previously posted idea may a solution, disabling the AV during data acquisition.
I hope this provides some clarity and please let me know how you get on!
