Windows 7

Onething is really slow and it uses 1.25GB of my RAM and it takes 5 min to turn on. I just installed the beta i am actually using it right now it uses less then a gig of RAM and it takes about 2 min to start up. It also has windows powershell an advanced command line and scripting language. It is also much easier to navigate and use very user friend friendly.

Has anyone been able to get LabView running on Windows 7? I received the same error as someone mentioned before. I might play with it a bit since I'm not on the school's crippled internet anymore.

i got that error in vista so is it 7?

Hmm... not sure... I had LabView working on Vista, but my laptop didn't like Vista, and would randomly freeze up, so Vista didn't work for me. I'm back to using XP. No freezes, LabView runs, and all my games still work, so I'm sticking with it until I need to upgrade.

The thing with vista is that it uses a lot of your cpu at one time. Ever want to scare yourself get the cpu gauge gadget and realize that 48% of your cpu is being used when nothing is open and your mouse isn't moving. So if you want to shell out a lot of money for a oct-proccesor vista's for you (there was a little bit of sarcasim with the oct-proccesor for those of you vista-simpathist).

I can't read through all 8 pages (sorry)

Has anyone tried running the labview installer in xp or vista compatibility mode?



Also, does anyone know whats happening for me? If I'm running a 3d application (game) in windowed mode then click so that its out of focus, the sound for that 3d app stops (more like mute, but the mixer shows no mute icons for the app).
