Simple code not functioning correctly

[ProgrammerMatt]

So today i wired up our robot and went to deploy code, not only did i have trouble getting the Crio to take the code but when it did only 1 of the 4 victors where actually receiving a signal, but it was blinking extremely fast and would not react to joystick moments, sometimes it would go full power and then stop and others it would do nothing at all, i did this using my code and the project example code with both the same results, i then switched to java and coded the same functions and it worked fine, is there something im doing wrong? im also running windows 8 if that has any relevance.
