Hello graduate student,
Are you running the 32-bit version of Windows XP or the Beta 64-bit (x64) edition? The folks above have already been kind enough to answer your question for the Beta/64-bit version, however, based on your
post in the PXI Forum, I would guess that you are experiencing crashes in the 32-bit version of Windows when you attempt to stream from 2 DSA boards (in a PXI chassis over MXI)? The quick answer is that your DSA boards should operate fine on a dual processor system running 32-bit Windows XP (this configuration sounds like it should
be tested and fully supported by NI). If you are having problems you should report them to us (with details). I will post further suggestions in a reply to your
original PXI post titled "pxi-1031 chassis keeps crashing on AMD 64-bit processor".
Hopefully that answers some questions.
Sincerely,
Jeremiah
