I am trying to install Lab View 8.6 onto a system running Windows 7 64 bit. However during the second phase of the install, or after the first module is installed and the second one gets underway I am presented with the following error message. First I thought because the installer was on a network drive it did not work, but then I copied the installer to the local drive but was presented with this message as before. Any ideas as what could be the problem?
Ok so I just read where I had posted this question before and it was stated that this version of Lab View will not run on Windows 7 64 bit. Althou I was able to get it to run on other systems running Windows 7 64 bit.
Unfortunately you are correct in saying that LabVIEW 8.6 is not supported for Windows 7 64 bit. This means that it is not garunteed to function properly and in your case, it seems as if it will not install properly either.
Please refer to the following resource that shows Windows and LabVIEW compatibility.
