Now am using labview 7.1 in windows XP. I plan to buy a new laptop (preferably Dell Inspiron) , and I came to know that all latest editions come with Windows 7. Also it is not possible to make windows XP the OS for the above laptop as the drivers are not available and many features would not work. I am not in a position to buy latest version of Labview also. Is there any problem of compatiblity between Windows 7 and Labview 7.1
LabVIEW 2009 and the November 2009 NI Device Drivers DVD officially
support Windows 7. Official support indicates that we have tested
products and that any bugs will be addressed per our normal support
process, which is documented in The Software Engineering Process for National Instruments Product Development.
National Instruments products released prior to the aforementioned
versions are not officially supported on Windows 7. However, Microsoft
has stated that most applications supported on Windows Vista will run
smoothly on Windows 7 due to the underlying similarity of the two
operating systems as described in How compatible are your applications? Therefore, you may be able to install and use these products on Windows 7 without issues.
