As I was having the same issues, I contacted National Instruments myself and here is what tech support told me:

1. Try to run update 3.1 again by first extracting the entire folder and installing it.

2. Update the computer (EVEN IF it is NOT the classmate) with driver station update 1.1

3. Update the utilities for Labview 8.6

4. And last, if push comes to shove, uninstall EVERYTHING related to Labview (Even previous versions if they are still installed on your computer) then insert the newest CD of labview and install it. (Which should be 8.6.1)

If this does not work for you, I would suggest contacting National Instruments personally and informing them of the issues you are having. If you need to, they said they would send someone out to our location to help us with the installation process again.

If this helps anyone, great, if it didn't I tried anyway!!
