I had been programming for a couple weeks with no problems, trying to see w=
hether or not Labview could handle the data acquisition requirements that w=
e need for our software. Specifically, I was a little concerned that LV ma=
ybe be too "high level" to run fast enough for us. We're acquiring 2 analo=
g voltage signals and an edge counter for X, Y and Z position values and st=
reaming them into an intensity graph to get a picture of our scanned object=
I had been using the DAQ Assistant VI to do the acquisition, which under=
stably contains quite a bit of overhead, but the acquisition rate seemed to=
be okay (around 400Hz while streaming points into a 200x200 array on a DAQ=
Card-6036E). I wasn't quite done the interpolation routine though and was =
afraid that would slow it down some more.

On Monday I got my first B=
SOD just a couple seconds after starting my program after using the softwar=
e for hours. I brushed it off as a fluke and rebooted. Yesterday late in =
the afternoon I got another one after working on it and testing all day, bu=
t this time it never dumped the physical memory (it just hung). Much more =
concerning, I got a third one today upon just loading up Labview and trying=
to run my program for the first time. I took down the error message as:r>
IRQL_NOT_LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL
STOP:0X000000A(0X6D665346,0X0000002,0X=
0000001,0X80519E8C)

I rebooted, and upon trying to load windows, I g=
ot a message that SYSTEM was corrupt. Our IT guy came by and rebooted agai=
n, which seemed to work alright. But then when he rebooted again we got -a=
nother- one with no "IRQL" statement. I did manage to get it going again b=
y rebooting for a 3rd time.

What worries me is that this is getting =
progressively worse. For weeks I seemed to be able to tinker at will with =
the software and do all sorts of neat stuff and it didn't give me any error=
s. I haven't installed anything new this week at all, and suddenly it's cr=
apping out faster and faster.

I'm using (or was, until I uninstalled=
everything for safety) LV Eval version installed on NI-DAQ 7.0 with a Tosh=
iba TE2100 laptop (P4, 2GHz, 256meg). Are there any known issues with vers=
ion 7.0? I had tried installing the Eval version (I guess it's really call=
ed "Express") on NI-DAQ 7.2, but the DAQ Assistant never showed up in the m=
enu. After a few calls to NI tech support, I tried version 7.3 and it stil=
l wasn't there (and if you're new at LV, you NEED the DAQ Assistant), so I =
tried 7.0 and it worked fine.

I've attached my program. It's disorg=
anized, yes, but it does the job. Any ideas?
