Re: Will Labview work on windows 8?

This feels a bit late and I forgot to mention this in the beta discussions, but we were able to install the Beta software for FRC 2013 on an Acer laptop running Windows 8. Based on that, we were able to build/deploy the basic robot code, although it was not extensively tested beyond that.
I believe I read that another team had used Windows 8 successfully, although I do not remember correctly.

IIRC weren't there some installation snafus, or am I remembering that incorrectly?

Re: Will Labview work on windows 8?

From 1410, we didn't have any installation snafus or anything of the kind. It worked brilliantly. I've attached a PNG of labview running on my windows 8 computer - should put to rest any of the concerns that it's not working.

Re: Will Labview work on windows 8?

http://i.imgur.com/EMs3e.png Here is a link to a poor screenshot after tests today, you can just barely make out "FRC 2013 Getting Started", although the splash screen still says 2012. Dunno how that happened, it didn't before.

I think the installation snafus were from not running the installation as Admin.
