LabView 7 Express will not shutdown completely?

[JCP777]

Installed XP PRO sp2 rc1. Now, labview 7 express opens, runs fine, but will not shutdown completely. Labview window closes but "labview" remains in taskbar.It is necessary to go to task manager to shutdown labview.

Hi,

Is this the behavior without running any VI's?

Regards,

Wiebe.

It does not make any difference. I stopped a running program, went to file, then exit. Window would close, but LaView would remain in taskbar and would not go away. Would have to open task manager, stop labview, then would receive message, "program not responding", then would answer question box "end program?" with yes, and "labview" would disappear from tasbar indicating that it had indeed finally shut down. I have talked with one other person who is using labview with Windows xp pro sp2 rc1 and they said labview did the same thing on their computer.
I did a system restore and am back to windows xp pro sp1. LabView shuts down normally.

Be sure to check your firewalls. SP2 has the firewall turned on by default. Consider turning it off or allowing LabVIEW privledges. It may be that a LV process like the NI license manager cannot finish behind the firewall.
