CVI and windows 2000

[mrbean]

I have a legacy exe that was developed with CVI version 7.1 for a Windows 2000 target.  I still have the same target, but I have to make a few mods to the code, and I'm wondering if I can upgrade to CVI 8.5.1 (356).  I am developing on a Windows XP machine with 8.5.1 on it, and I'd like to make mods and create another exe for said target.  Are there any obvious issues I'll have?

Hi,

according to this site http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/3FA3982EBA12B3D286256896005FAA39 CVI 8.5.1 will not work with Windows 2000, you will have to stick to CVI 8.5 or earlier.

Hth, Wolfgang

I just found out that our target machine was updated with service pack 4, so I think 8.5.1 should work.
