SO Wait causes exception occurred within external code called by call library node

when trying to run some old code that used to work ok, i now get this error message:

exception occurred within external code called by call library node

and the vi flagged as calling the exception is SO Wait. the error occurs with different soundcards. does anyone know what is causing this problem?

Hi Kreuters

It sounds as if you have a case of memory corruption. Which version of LabVIEW and DAQ (traditonal or DAQmx) are you running and also on which operating system?

would it be possible for you to post your VI on this thread? in some cases there are ways to fix the problem

i managed to fix this in the end, very strange error. turned out to be caused by a Vi that was loading a bunch of wav files to memory, and one of the filenames had a typo. the error was then passed to the SO Wait function, which produced this error about memory corruption. took ages to hunt that down.
