Hi Pine

Thanks for your reply

My operating system is Windows XP Professional (SP2, 32bit) . My CPU is an Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz. I have 2 GB ram.  If there is anything else I can tell you, please let me know.

My machine is the same as you.  I realize that the only difference between us is the LabVIEW version. I'm using LabVIEW 8.6, and matrix power has been enabled to run parallel in this version. But on LabVIEW 8.5 and before, it can not. 

If you still want to run matrix power VI parallel on LabVIEW 8.5, try this: 

1. Open "Real Matrix Power.vi";

2. Select "Operate" on LabVIEW menu, and select "Change to Edit Mode" (or Ctrl+M); 

3. Select "File -> VI Properties"(or Ctrl+I), on Category select Execution;

4. Check "Reentrant execution";

5. Save  "Real Matrix Power.vi".

Now "Real Matrix Power.vi" can run parallel. Hope this can help you.
