I get a nimax.exe- Applicatio​n Error every time I start labview

every time I start a vi either by double clicking or by opening labview first I get an application error... "the instruction at "0x1ca12b96" referenced at "0x00000000", The memory could not be "read", click ok to terminate the program". when I click ok the program does not terminate and as long as I don't close labview completely I can close it and reopen the vi. I am unsure if the program malfuncions after that point but it is certainly an annoyance. Have you seen this problem before? Is there something that I should do to the vi to correct the problem? Thanks,

I talked to NI about this issue, and tried the following WITH success (note that I am running W2k and Labview 6.0.2):
1. Uninstall all NI components in the reverse order you installed them. For me, this was Ni-Daq, Ni-488.2, and finally Labview 6.0. If you have to, look at the modified or created dates of the folders to see what order you did it in.
2. After this, I decided to go a bit further and delete the registry key for Ni-Daq under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\National Instruments\NI-DAQ. Make sure you Export your registry key beforehand in case something goes wrong.
3. Install Labview 6.0, custom installation. For this installation, DO NOT INSTALL the drivers, just Labview.
4. After that, I installed the upgrade patch for Labview 6i -> 6.0.2, downloaded at ni.com.
5. Next I downloaded the 2 files for NI-DAQ 6.9.3, uncompressed the files, and ran the setup. When the installation was done, I chose to not reboot now, but let me do it later. At one of these points, you can also Mass compile the VI's. I don't think it's necessary at this point, but I did it anyway.
6. Finally, I downloaded NI-488.2 version 2.2 (which has a new version of MAX than NI-DAQ 6.9.3), uncompressed it and installed it.
7. After this last step, I rebooted the computer and was able to finally get into MAX to configure my DAQ card.
So far, this method has worked. Perhaps it can work for you.

  • Error updating mutation history every time I start LabVIEW

    I have a slightly annoying problem that has been re-occuring the past month or so. Every time I start LabVIEW I get the following error messages:
    Error occured updating the mutation history for Progam (2).lvclass. All values of this class in controls and constants will be reset to the default value
    The same error appears for Page (2).lvclass, Chart (2).lvclass, Worksheet (2).lvclass and Workbook (2).lvclass.
    It slows down my LabVIEW startup time by at least 3-4 minutes every time, which is quite annoying. I imagine the problem is occuring when it populates my existing projects, and in one of these projects contains the problem lvclass files. But I did a search of my ProgramFiles\NationalIntruments folder and my work directory and didn't find any files of those names. Just wondering if any one had any ideas on how to fix it?
    Thanks!

    Okay, seems like I found the problem. Yes, to answer your question, most of my LabVIEW programming is OO, using GOOP mainly.
    I also imported hundreds of LabVIEW libraries where these lvclass files were, they were in ImportedLib\DataLogger\LabVIEW widgets\ActiveX
    It's not code I've written, but I don't see why including these files was necessary in the repo, oh well. To get rid of the error I just removed those files and the mutation error stopped appearing. What's still a little confusing is why these files were being accessed on LabVIEW startup. I can imagine it necessary to load these files when the project is opened, but seems weird when it's just populating the existing projects list.
    Oh well, thanks for looking into it Andy, files were not in the NI folder which explains why I didn't find them on my first attempt.

  • "investiga​te previous internal error" every time I start LV 8.2.1

    Hi,
    Every time I start LV 8.2.1 I get a message "The last time you ran LabVIEW, an internal error or crash occurred at fpsane.cpp, line 401" and it asks if I want to investigate now. I don't have any problems while running the application, compiling it or building an installer. Does anyone have any idea what this is and if it's important?
    Thanks,
    Danielle

    Although the VI runs, it may have a strange entry somewhere. 
    I did get that message a couple of times.  From what I can recall it was when running omething & I had to kill the execution, or shut down LV completely.  Upon re-start of LV a similar message popped up.   The message did not re-appear at the next start.  Maybe I inadvertently fixed it without knowing..
    Try loading your VI, running it once.  Saving it.  Shut down LV.  Restart LV.  And check to see if the message continuous to appear. (you may have to repeat the steps once).
    Oh... Do you have any Disable Structure which has some unfinished code iside it?  I do recall that...  Who knows..  (???)

  • I get an error every time i start my muvo tx

    Because i didnt shut down the muvo tx fm mp3 player properly when i was done with writing music it started to turn off whenever i turned it on. I checked the manual and it said that i had to format it, but only format FAT files only. I accidentally didnt select that option. Now every time i try to open the mp3 player i get an error message saying: File System Error. What should i do?
    ps: i have tried scan disc.

    I had that problem with my MuVo TX fm as well. What I did was I went to format it again, this time choosing the proper option, and that seemed to work.

  • How can I get rid of this that shows up every time I start my Mac?

    “/Library/StartupItems/AdobeVersionCue” has not been started because it does not have the proper security settings.
    It started to show up when moving from CS4 and up. I am currently a Creative Cloud user
    Thanks

    Hi RicardoGonzalez,
    Welcome to Adobe Forums.
    Please open the finder window click on "go" and choose "computer".
    Navigate to MacHD/Library/Startupitems and send AdobeVersionCue to Desktop or some other location on the hard drive.
    Then try to launch your application and check if the issue persists.
    Thanks

  • NImax.exe has generated errors. You must restart the program, a log file is being created.

    NImax.exe has generated errors. You must restart the program, a log file is
    being created.
    This error occurs just after bootup, no programs started except windows..
    Running Windows 2000 latest version on a brand new computer.
    (pent 4 3.0 ghz 500MB ram).
    Can anyone help me with this problem? Happened after install Labview 7.0
    express. Installed twice and same problem occured with both installs.
    Labview 7.0 is the only thing installed right now. Also selected "Visual
    Basic Support" install from driver cd's.
    One other thing I just noticed. System info reports 2 processors and I
    think I only have one.
    TIA

    Happy update.
    After ignoring this problem for awhile and installing some NI DAQ boards,
    this problem is not happening anymore.
    Would urge NI to investigate further though. Messed me up for a couple of
    days, and still don't know why it happened.
    Much thanks to those who helped.

  • NIMax.exe has generated errors

    My system was working fine till this morning. I had to reconnect GPIB cables. I did that and ever since then, i'm unable to use MAX. As soon as i open MAX and click on "Devices and Interface", i get this error - "nimax.exe has generated errors and will be closed down by windows. You need to restart the program". I uninstalled LV 6.0 and MAX 3.1 and reinstalled LV 6.0 and MAX 3.2. The problem still is the same .. PLEASE HELP IMMEDIATELY !!!

    Perhaps in the reinstallation of MAX the configuration data files have been corrupted. One way we can check this is to close MAX, and then delete the Data folder found in C:\Program Files\National Instruments\MAX. This will basically give you a clean slate in MAX to start from. WARNING: Deleting the Data folder will remove all MAX configurations. New configuration files will be created when MAX is reopened. If this is something that's possible for you, please try it, and let us know if it allows you to reopen MAX and move on. If not, we'll keep trying.
