Invalid Image Type Error With LabVIEW 7 express and IMAQ Vision 6?

[jingli]

I was previously using NI-IMAQ 2.5.1 and Vision 6 and my IMAQ code has been working fine. After upgrading to LabVIEW7 Express with its driver NI-IMAQ 2.5.7, I now get an "Invalid Image Type" error from my IMAQ code, regardless of the image type I select. I don't not what's the reason and how to solve it?
thanks a lot.

Hello,

Please see the following knowledgebase called How Do I Fix The Broken Image Wires When Using IMAQ 2.6?
Let me know if you have further questions.

but how to use "convert VI to use LabVIEW 7 Image Datatype", it seems that the vi only search for instances of old image cluster but doesn't replace them with the new image data type.

The utility will give you the option to replace the existing wires with the new data type.

I found that it only replaced some of the clusters. Wish I could get my hands on the source code so that I could modify it to fix the rest of my code.
