So our team tried to install Labview 2015 on one of our team computers, but it wasn't installing correctly. A pop up shows up soon after putting in the boot disk and starting the installation process. It says:

"NI LabVIEW 2014 32-Bit must be installed before you can install the NI LabVIEW 2014 Real-Time Module"

Where do we go/what do we do to get this installation? We've been Google searching "Labview 2014 32-Bit download" but haven't been getting anything. Normally this doesn't happen to us as we just put the disk in and it works fine. We tested this disk on some of our personal computers and it worked just fine without getting any "Labview 32-Bit" first.

The procedure should be to insert the DVD or a USB stick with the DVD contents copied onto it. Then launch the auto launcher. Choose to install all of the contents. When that completes, install the 2015 FRC Update.

If you still have problems, perhaps you should contact support using the information found on ni.com/frc.

Yeah, that's what we've been trying to do and it hasn't worked at all for any of our computers except for our personal computers. I'll try out the NI support directly then.

If it works on your personal computers but not on school computers, there's a chance the school is running security software preventing executables or other things from being installed. Just a thought.

Can you right click on the setup and 'run as administrator' from the DVD?

Check this first. Many schools make the computers stupid proof by making sure you cannot download, run install executables, block any port that's not HTTP/HTTPS, etc. You may need to ask site tech to allow you to install any type of program, our team has a site tech as a mentor so we can install certain files if he sees it appropriate.

The school gave us these computers specifically for the purpose of using it for robotics. This being said, they are owned by us and don't have any protection or admins over us. What is even weirder is that we used these same exact computers last year and they worked perfectly fine with no issue on the installation.

Interesting... Is it Windows OS? Just install a fresh copy or boot from the recovery partition.
