Exclamation Re: No Robot Code!!!

Thanks for all the wonderful suggestions and comments.
Here's my list so far...

1) What are the Driver stations updates for? What do they do? SOLVED
Thanks to byteit101

2) What are the possible ways that trigger a "No Robot Code" error?

Hmmm... Thanks, but what is a symbol? The linker wasn't able to successfully link the dynamic libraries correctly? (Incorrect correspondence between in-program link and the actual link library?)

3) I have installed NetConsole on my computer (with LabView Runtime) and enabled the "NetConsole.out" in "ni-rt.ini" via FTP. I rebooted the robot but it still doesn't work... (auto-connect or not) Has anyone have this problem before?

4) What is supposed to come up upon booting (of cRIO) on the NetConsole? SOLVED
Thanks to Radical Pi

No consequence on the actual robot)

5) What does updating the cRIO image do? Would it help? SOLVED

So apparently, this is my to-do list:
1) Check "No App" switch.
2) Reformat/reimage cRIO. (v20)
3) Run WindRiver updates. (4.3)
4) Run driver station updates.
5) Load new code. Hope it works!

Thank you guys, I learned a lot!
