This is what the other programmer used. The only difference is that he changed the motors from the Jaguar used in the example, to the Victor. Our motor controllers are Victor 888, and I'm not positive exactly how he changed it. Otherwise, as far as I know, he followed the tutorial step-by-step.

Is there any hack-y work around to get the thing to run, even with the current glitched "SmartDashboard" (what program is this? Is it on the Netbook, the robot, or what? Not sure if I've seen anything like this.)

And also, referring to "If by some chance you didn't select the checkbox to "always run deployed code" when you reimaged the cRIO, code that you Deploy won't actually be run when the cRIO starts up. To ensure that your code gets run on startup, use the "Run as startup" command instead of the "Deploy" command."
I indeed did not select the checkbox to always run eployed code. Should I go back and do that? Or is that inconsequential to my current issue?

Finally, my problem seems to be the exact same as BitTwiddler's (save the fact that I've yet to get any movement- not sure if he was able to achieve that).
