LabVIEW and Windows 2000 execution problem

[jamesz]

I have a vi that was developed under LabVIEW 5.1.1 running under Windows 98. I now
need to port this vi to Windows 2000 and I have an execution problem.
The vi, under Windows 2000 runs about 2 times slower and some of the display
Windows can take as long as 20 seconds to appear and display there text information.
This is causing a real headache for the operators, I s there a fix for LabVIEW running under Windows 2000, or do I have to live with the very long display times.

Thank you

Check all of your loops and make sure that there is a wait in all of them. It doesn't have to be much but you should have something there so that the OS can do its thing.

I confirm that, due to its multitasking capability, it's very important for Windows 2000 to place a wait function in each while loop; otherwise all the resources of the system will be engaged to run it.
I suggest always to use the task manager of Windows 2000 to check it when the application is running.

Thank you
I put a 25 ms delay in each look and function this sped up the program, It now runs as fast as 98
