Re: LabVIEW install: Just the Facts, Ma'am
It most likely doesn't matter much. The safer way to go is probably installing the disc contents, then the updates from the LabVIEW updater, then the downloadable FRC LabVIEW update/utilities update, BUT...

I've tried doing it backwards on one of my teammates' laptops the other day and it worked perfectly well. Both sets of updates (the one from the updating tool from NI and the manually downloadable ones designed for FRC) are designed with an updateable mindset either way, as NI obviously patches LabVIEW every now and then, and the utilities update usually gets at least a 2nd update mid-season.

All in all, I wouldn't read into it that much.
