Question Labview and windows 8, having issues
Hello guys, our team just got our brand new programming laptop which is a Toshiba satellite that's on WIN 8, 64bit, and I'm having some issues. If I put in the FRC 2014 install disk, I can run it and start the installs fine, but it always skips right over the labview 2013 install and tries to install the rest and then says I need labview installed first, but it just skips right over it, doesn't even attempt to install it. The screen comes up and then starts initializing the next install. So I just kind of ignored this and went to the NI site to download it instead, but the downloader will not connect no matter what I do, and the firewall is completely off. So I got out a fresh WIN 7 Lenovo thinkpad t500 and put in the disk and it worked perfectly, and the NI downloaders work perfect. Anyone know what's up with this windows 8 problem? It seems to be fighting me every step...

Thanks guys!
