FIRST Robotics 2010 LabVIEW Installation?

[mat3049]

When I try to install LabVIEW 8.6.1 using the FIRST Competition Software Kit, I can enter my directory, organization, name, etc. and it will start installing:

 

However, when it says initializing LabVIEW Installer (1 out of 15 Products):

 

 

the LabVIEW installer will start, complete the progress bar and disappear. Soon after, the 8.6 Real-Time Module starts its installer and leaves me with a message:

 

"NI LabVIEW 8.6.1 must be installed before you can install the NI LabVIEW 8.6.1 Real-Time Module. "

By the way my system specifications if you need them are:

PC Model: Inspiron 1520

OS: Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit

Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo T7100 @ 1.80 GHz 1.80 GHz

Memory (RAM) : 2.00 GB

Hard Drive: 150 GB

Oh I'm very sorry, the link I clicked said it redirected to FIRST forums, but thank you very much for your tip!

I actually found the problem and solved it. 😄

It seems like NI MAX was glitching up somehow and managed to fix the installation.

Again, thank you very much!
