NILM.EXE Application failed to initialise properly 0xc0000142

Hi,

I have recently had to reload windows (xp pro 2003 sp 3)  onto my laptop and eventually got round to reinstalling labview 6.1. during the install, i get the repeated message "nilm.exe - the appication failed to initialise properly 0xc0000142" after which the system grinds to a halt under the weight of many many copies of nilm.exe failing to initialise in the same way...

I had a look around and discovered that the solution might be to disable this

.. which i did.. but unfortuanely it didnt seem to work...

does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Mark

Hi Mark,

Did you receive any errors during the installation of LV 6.1 during installation? If so please take a look at the 6.1 ReadMe.txt which offers some registry keys you can comment out that may resolve the problem. If this doesn't help then what's different to this installation versus the one that worked previously, was that under XP SP3 as well? I'd re-check that you install 6.1 with the virus guard turned off, and that the virus guard allows exceptions i.e. nilm.exe on your system as it may be a security related issue preventing NILM.exe from starting.

Kind Regards,

Hi Rob,

The error i get is actually during the install... presumably immediately after it puts nilm.exe on the system. The virus scanner (kaspersky) was disabled during install.. and my previous installation was done under SP 2 of windows.. so im trying again with the SP removed... i;ll keep you posted

Thanks

Mark

No luck there.

I get exactly the same error..

I found this log file too... which i think relates to the installation of the licence manager
