The version used for the roboRIO is not compatible with the cRIO which used a different/older version.
I believe v52 is the correct FRC image for 2014.

You can use the cRIO if you still have an old original Java user program installed on it, but you won't be able to make modifications.
Or if you still have an installation of the older cRIO Java version on a PC that can be used.
Otherwise, LabVIEW is the only really supported cross-compatible language.

Well I'm not sure what java version the v52, I believe I'm using 6 to build the program though. Do I have no choice but to use labview if this is the case?
