Re: PWM problems
Do you also have issues with cRIO connectivity?

2604 had a similar problem to what you are describing. Our drive system is/was 4 wheel CAN mech drive. Then our 'arm' is powered via 4 pwm jags.

The issue we repeatedly had was
"Unable to allocate PWM channel" (as seen in the driver station error window/output text box)

If you have both of these issues what you may want to look at if your labview install, our happened to be corrupted thus our 'compiled' code wasn't actually doing what we programmed it to do. This being the problem all older revisions proved unworkable. (It maybe possible with C++ or Java, I don't know)
