Run Time VB6 got hung up in NIDAQDelay function of nidex32.dll in new PC running XP

[Tomax]

I installed the Ni-Daq 6.9.2 in a new PC running XP OS.  The "nidex32.dll" is in the SYSTEM32 folder.   However, during RUNTIME, the VB6 program got stuck on the NIDAQDelay function. I saw the "NOT RESPONDING" on the VB6 Application, on the TASKMANAGER.  I don't have such issue with a older PC running XP OS

I suspect there might be a PC incompatibility.   I would appreciate any idea that would help with this situation.

Hi Tomax,

The crashing of NIDAQDelay is system dependent. The crashing of the application can occur on one system, but be absolutely find in another. This very behavior has been discussed multiple times across our forums. The end result is if NIDAQDelay is causing problems, we suggest using the Windows SDK Sleep().

I suggest reading the discussion in NIDaqDelay Crashes the program.
