can a ni pxi-8145 rt controller run labview 6.1 under NT

[PCmurphy]

I am assuming a large compactFlash disk. I need it for a low pressure and high vibration environment. Of course a pxi-8174 with a flash disk would probably work, but it is overkill and more expensive.

PCmurphy--

The NI PXI-8145RT controller will be upgradable (theoretically) to any flash drive available. So if you have a hard drive big enough for Windows to operate on, theoretically, it would be possible to install Windows NT on the system. However, it is not a supported application to install a Windows operating system on a RT controller, and it hasn't been tested here at National Instruments. It is possible that some of the peripherals in the controller do not have drivers for the Windows environment. I recommend the 8171 series controller for your application.
