Upgrading from Labview 8.0 to Labview 8.6

[ofer_o]

Software installed in my system (Window 2000):

Testand 3.5
Labview 8.0
Cvi 8.0

Device drivers
NI-488.2 VERSION 2.46
NI-VISA VERSION 3.6
NI-DAQMX VERSION 8.1.0F1

I want to install LABVIEW 8.6 instead of LABVIEW 8.0

1.Do I have to upgrade Testand,Cvi, or one of the device drivers?
2.Do I have to uninstall labview 8.0 before installing labview 8.6
  (right now Labview 8.0 is installed at directory: "c:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW"
   & I want to install LABVIEW 8.6 at the same path.

Thanks Ofer

Hi ofer_o,

you have to install the device drivers for LabVIEW 8.6. You don't need to install TestStand or CVI again. You don't have to uninstall LabVIEW 8.0 to run 8.6. You can use both side by side, technically, i'm not sure about your license.
