There was this comment in the "Getting_Started_with_the_2011_FRC_Control_System_ Rev_A.pdf"
"If you currently have National Instruments software on your PC, it will not interfere with that installation. However it will install over another version of LabView 8.6."

This led us to believe you didn't need to do an uninstall of LV 8.6, 2010, before installing the 2011 version. So we installed 2011 LabView right over the 2010 version, works fine, can deploy code, but can't seem to successfully set it as startup code. Not sure why. Did you see this issue?
We had an installation of LabView 2009 for FTC that hasn't been used much (we have another computer for FTC), and LabView 8.6 for 2010 FRC. Someone accidentally installed a 2011 update, not the full version, over the 2010 version, and whenever code was was ran or deployed we would get a "Microsoft C++ Runtime Error" saying something similar to "The program was called to terminate unexpectedly" and then LabView would crash.

I'm not 100% sure what caused the problem, but uninstalling all versions of LV (2009, 8.6 2010, 8.6 2011) and reinstalling 2011 worked fine.
