Why is the start-up time 5 minutes for Version 8?

We installed LabVIEW 8 on 2 new PCs with Windows XP. On both machines the program needs 4 to 5 minutes to start. This is not acceptable.

Thanks for all replies,
I talked to NI and they do not have an explanation yet. Here is a more precise information:
After program start it takes up to 3 minutes before the yellow start window appears which states
"LabVIEW 8 - Base development system".
After a total time of about 5 minutes the program finally starts with the browser window.
1st PC used is:
Hardware:
HP Workstation xw4200 with Intel Pentium 4 CPU 3.40 GHz 1024 MB RAM
Software:
Windows XP SP1 Revision 5.1.2600
2nd PC used is:
Hardware:
Dell Precision Workstation 670 with Xeon™ CPU 3.40 GHz 1024 MB RAM
Software:
Windows XP SP1 Revision 5.1.2600
Best regards from Winni

    How do I chnage the start/stop time for multiple songs not just one song at a time?

    I don't think you can in iTunes.
    Multiple editing in Get Info does not offer an option to change start/stop times.

  • Reduce/Eliminate the start up time for a batch job

    I'm looking for ideas on how I might be able to modify either my jobs, workflow or data flow in an effort to reduce the "start up" time that I'm encountering.
    Currently I have a batch job we execute several hundred times a day. One of the parameters we pass to this job is a file path. The data flow reads a flat text file in this file path, processes the data through several transforms, and writes a flat text file back into the file path.
    The actual processing time varies with the number of records being processed -- as one would expect.
    However, even for the smallest - single record - input file the job takes between 40 and 50 seconds to complete. If I watch the trace file during this time it appears that 95% of this time is spent getting ready to run the job. The actual processing is almost instantaneous.
    Is there anything that I can look at changing in order to improve the overall performance of these jobs?
    I should mention that I am aware of setting up real time jobs, and how they would not require this "start up" time for each job submitted. However this jobs we process could between 1 to 1,000,000 records. Passing that many records in a single web service call does not seem reasonable. I would deal with issue on the submission side and then the potential timeout issue when waiting on the response -- which could also be quite large.

    Thanks Michael --
    I must admit I'm a bit lost when it comes to the issue of codepages.
    Is there any documentation you could refer me to with regard to setting the correct codepage for the data sources and targets?
    Also, from the trace log I see the following statement:
    Changed engine runtime locale <eng_us.cp1252> to <Unicode (UTF-16)> because data flow <DF_Suppression> contains a transform that requires processing with the Unicode (UTF-16) code page.
    Other than the data source and data targets I do not see any option to set, or change, the codepage within any of transforms that I am using. (URAC, Name Cleanse, Query, Case, Match transforms are used)
    Right now my source and targets are set to "default", which would seem to need to be changed. Where is the "default" set?
    Sorry for so many questions about this.

  • Why is the call history time on the printout different than the phone?

    Why is the call history time on the printout different than the phone?

    How much different is it? A minute or two??
    Calls are triggered the minute you hit send, not answered. And the same when ending a call. So if off a minute or two for a call that is why.

    WHY ARE THE UK USERS PAYING MORE FOR THE CLOUD SERVICES????
    OR IS IT JUST LAZYINESS THAT YOU CHANGE THE DOLLAR SIGN FOR THE POUND?

    it obviously doesn't, but then again some people or organisation only care about price when it comes to purchasing their laptops, and it is hard to justify making a special model for a selected few.
    Sure everything can be done if there is a market for it, but Lenovo won't know how large the market is before hand, as such they are hedging a bet by not moving with the market (which Lenovo have done on many occasions). I guess the finanical return is not the worth the risk for Lenovo to keep the 4:3 or 16:10 screens.
    But this debate has been going back and forth for a long time, so no point bringing it up again and again.

  • Why java allow start() method only once for a thread

    Hi ,
    Why java allows start method only once for thread . suppose
    Thread t = new Thread();
    t.start();
    say at later stage if again we call t.start() IllegalStateException is thrown , even though isAlive method returns false.
    Hence the question , why start() method is allowed only once.If you need start a thread , we need to create a new instance.

    Really. Why do you think that? Do you have any evidence? It is one of the first things I would think of, personally.Considering that the Thread API doesn't allow you to specify a stack address (only stack size), I think it demonstrates they wanted to remove that capability from their Thread API all together. That missing "capability" makes me believe they want me to believe it's not something I need to worry about when using their API... I think the exact semantics of the Thread class and its methods were driven by how to make it most understandable and usable for their customers. I'm certain this issue was one of many that was given considerable thought during the design and implementation of the JVM and the underlying runtime classes.
    Do I have any evidence? No. But if you can point me at some first-hand information on this, I'd love to read it. Most of what I've found is second or third hand accounts. (and I mean that sincerely, not as a smart-ass remark or rebuke of your comments).
    On the one hand you seem to think the Java API designers are idiots, on the other hand you think that they should be. I can't make it out.I thought my position was that the Java developers were talented enough to implement platform in whatever way their API called for; hence, the designers made a choice about how they wanted their API to be used by their customers. They decided which capabilities they wanted to include or exclude, and created an API that was consistent with their vision for this technology. While I'm certain technical limitations had an effect on the API design, I certainly don't think the API was dictated by the them.
    I think the current design of the Java Thread API was a reflection of their vision to make Threading easier and more accessible to Joe Programmer, not limitations in the implementation. I never said it was wrong or that I could do better... I just said I think they could have done something different if they decided it would have made for a better customer experience. But hey, maybe I'm wrong.

  • Why has the "Job" movie been loading for the past 3 days?  I have a 10Mb Uverse Internet connection.

    Why has the "Job" movie been loading for the past 3 days?  I have a 10Mb Uverse Internet connection.movie

    It should not take more than 4 hr.   Is there any indication it is making process?  i.e.  When you click on it to play do you get a message like "Will be avialable in 2hr 34 min"?  Is that time changing?  I would cancel the download.  Restart ATV and then retry.  If it goes more than 4hr then there is an issue. 
    As another option you can always download the movie to your computer and use the iTuens menus to play it from your computer under the Computers icon.

  • Why are the shut down times so various

    why are the shut down times so various

    Then again, it could be completely abnormal.
    I found that after updating to 10.8.2, from 10.8.1, that my shutdown times went from a solid 3-4 seconds, to a wide array. For the most part, it takes an average of 14-20 seconds on 10.8.2 (with an rare occasional 3-4 second shutdown).
    I have performed an erasure, and restore to 10.8.1 to alleviate it (kinda bummed, because I do like some of the new features of 10.8.2).
    I then cloned the 10.8.1 install to an external Thunderbolt SSD, and then updated that drive to 10.8.2. Shutdown problem is then evident on that drive (even in safe mode, with no startup items running).
    After looking at the console logs, there appears to be a OS component that is hanging. Hopefully 10.8.3 will address it, as I find many others are seeing the same thing (as well as the hanging OS component in their system log).

    Solved!

    Auto mode is a very limited mode. Try using Program until you learn how the other modes give you more control.

  • Why is the Apple Weather App wrong for low temps in Albuquerque, NM?  Low temp is always displays about 10 degrees too low.

    Why is the Apple Weather App wrong for low temps in Albuquerque, NM? 
    Low temp is always displays about 10 degrees too low.

    The reason for the problematic weather prediction in Apple is simple and disturbing at the same time.
    1. Traditionally Apple gets its weather data from Yahoo! they do so regardless to the fact that Yahoo is not a weather company, this arrangement has historical reasons (and it has nothing to do with the accuracy or quality of service you as a user are getting from Apple weather).
    2. Yahoo! (not a weather company) gets its weather data from the Weather Channel.
    3. Weather Channel CEO (David Kenny) also serves as Yahoo board member. So good luck changing the Weather Channel Yahoo agreement.
    4. The iPhone build in weather app is one of the world most popular apps, The Weather Channel has no incentive to make the Apple weather app as accurate as The Weather Channel own app.
    The result is – easy to use inaccurate weather app

  • Can I use two Time Capsules? one as an extension of my laptop (for music and video storage) and the other one to back up everything from the laptop and  Time Capsule (for music and videos)

    Can I use two Time Capsules? one as an extension of my laptop (for music and video storage) and the other one to back up everything from the laptop and  Time Capsule (for music and videos)

    Not via Time Machine.   It cannot back up from a network location.
    The 3rd-party apps CarbonCopyCloner and ChronoSync may be workable alternatives.
    EDIT:  And, if you're going to do that, you could back up from the Time Capsule to a USB drive connected to the TC's USB port.  Second TC not required.

  • Why is the transportation C02e 4x higher for Macbook pro 15" compared to iMac 27".

    Why is the transportation C02e 4x higher for Macbook pro 15" compared to iMac 27".

    Both are great machines but have rather different purposes...while the graphics are good on the MBP, the iMac graphics would be a major step up.  Especially if you want to do heavy duty photo or video work, and heavy game use.  If the MBP is getting hot and running the fans hard, that would point you to the iMac with its higher end graphics capability.
    The photo and video work would be much easier with the larger screen and higier end graphics and faster cpu.

    Why is the a505 series not compatible for the windows 10 upgrade. It does not show up in the system available for the upgrade.

    Nobody said that it wasn't compatible. Microsoft makes that determination.  Toshiba, however, has chosen not to write new utilities and drivers for it for Windows 10.
