VI Logger locks up when returning from edit task

Every time I press OK after editing my VI logger task the system locks up. Task manager doesn't show the system as not responding but It will just sit there with the hourglass for > 20 min.

If I close VI Logger using the task manager the changes are saved and i just have to re open VI logger and run my task.

Why is VI Logger locking up?
 
VER 4.2.1.3001
 
Running on Windows XP

Hi Amaes,
I've never seen a problem like this in VI Logger, so I'm not sure right off what would be causing it.  I've got a list of questions that might help us figure out the issue:
1. What operating system are you working on?  (You mentioned the Task Manager, so some version of Windows?)
2. Can you describe your system?  (Processor speed, amount of RAM, etc.)
3. What hardware are you using?
4. Do you see the same problem if you create a task in MAX?
 
Lastly, regardless of this problem, I recommend switching from VI Logger to LabVIEW Signal Express.  The Lite Edition of Signal Express is included as a free download with the newest version of the NI-DAQmx driver and can be found here.
Thanks,
