DAQCard-6036E on DELL Latitude

CWBufferedAO.zip VB program downloaded from "Buffered Analog Output" in KB stops after it run for 5 to 30 minutes on DELL Latitude V740 with Win2000 and NIDAQ 6.9.3. "STOP" means both "Update count" and "Chart" are
not updated. This program runs on Toshiba and Sharp note PC over hours. Is there anyone experienced this kind of trouble?

Hi,

Make sure that you do not have the evaluation version of ComponentWorks installed -- or at least the controls you are using are not evaluation version controls (they time out after 5 minutes of use). Are you getting any errors or message before they time out? try some of the Visual Basic shipping examples and see if you get the same effect.

Regards,
RamziH.

As long as Fan in Inspiron-2600 works, similar program runs over a night. Sometimes it runs on Latitude V740 for 3 hours.
Our Latitude V740 was shipped with BIOS A06 which makes Fans not running under Win2000 in most time. In this situation, only DA (Analog out) is stopped in 5 to 30 minutes although AD (Analog In) is always working. Nidaq32.sys may stop DA (not jumping to Progress routine) when the power save mode of Latitude becomes active and Fans do not run.
Finally BIOS was replaced from A06 to A07 thelatest version and Intel Speedstep was cancelled. Then programs has run over a night. This solution was adviced by your local staff in Japan yesterday.
Thanks,
