LabVIEW crashes when I paste to the diagram

[DavidPL]

When I paste a part of one diagram to another, Labview 7 crashes with "The thread 'Win32 Thread' (0x910) has exited with code 0 (0x0).
Unhandled exception at 0x0084d46e in LabVIEW.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x8168592c."

Does this happen for a particular VI or for any VI? If it is for any VI, you should consider reinstalling LabVIEW, update your OS to the latest service pack, and updating your video drivers. If this is for a particular VI, then it is probably corrupted. Take a screen shot of your diagram (just in case) and rebuild the code.

In any particular order? What about NI-DAC? Reinstalling LabView is a pain, as I have the NI-CAN pack I would have to re-install.

There is another machine that has LabView 7 on it. When saving a VI, I have seen a message "Bad Patch", and then it will not run the code. I find if I edit the diagram, I can then get it to run the code.

A screen shot of the code? It would require many screen shots of the code.

For now, I intend to be carefull about saves and copies.
