Strange behavior of startup and cannot access the tools-> options menu

Since this morning my LV8 installation does not display the normal startup dialog box (allowing you to open the existing screws or open a new one), but doesn't that immediately opens a new VI.  If I close this new NC and then instead of back to the Startup dialog box it opens a second new (empty) VI.    Furthermore, I can't open the tools-> option menu from a façade of VI.

I tried to repair the installation of the LV and when that does not work I went for a complete deletion and don't reinstall - still no joy!

I also check that it is not user specific, so that when I login as a different user on the same PC, I get the same behavior

Help - please!

Hi AMHurrel,

This seems quite strange.

Have you changed anything on your installation?

When you say you did a complete removal and reinstall, how?

Here are the steps I follow:

The following procedure removes the software Instrument National:

1. turn off the computer and physically remove or disconnect all devices that you have installed on your system.
This includes everything-PCI, ISA, USB, 1394-, or based on ethernet.

2 turn on the computer and go through Add/Remove Programs (START"SETTINGS" control PANEL"Add/Remove Programs)
and remove all OR related. As a general rule, if you remember, it is best to uninstall things in
the reverse order in which they were installed. For example, if you installed LabVIEW, then NOR-DAQ, then the
Internet developers Toolkit for LabVIEW, you must uninstall the Internet firstly, developers kit
NOR-DAQ, then last LabVIEW.

3. once everything has been deleted (don't be concerned at this stage if an item still appears in the)
Ajouter/suppression of programs list after you remove it), close all programs and restart your computer.

4. go to the START button in your operating system, choose RUN and type 'regedit '. This will open up the registry
The Editor window. Go to the registry Menu and choose Export registry file. Select 'All' to the export range,
and select a file name. This creates a backup of the registry in case a mistake is made when you remove the key.

5. remove the following components of the registry in the Windows registry:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\National Instruments remove the entire tree!
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\National Instruments remove the entire tree!
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\PCI\ or \ISA and remove registry entries containing one
keys with 1093 in them.
   
Don't worry if one of these trees are not listed. Continue with the rest of the process.

Note: You may need to change the security policies. In Windows 2000, 98, 95, NT, go to [regedt32] then
Security > permissions. In Windows XP, you can change the security using Edit options > permissions in the
Publisher of the registry (regedit).

6. close regedit.

7. make sure that you don't have your own screws or other files in the "C:\VXIpnp."
"C:\Program NIUninstaller Instruments", or "C:\WINDOWS\nidaq" folders. If you do, copy them to a
different location. If you are concerned about preserving old virtual tracks and your SCXI configuration.
then save the file "C:\WINDOWS\niconfig.daq", too. Delete all folders and files mentioned above.

Note: If you have Windows NT/2000, replace 'C:\Windows' with 'C:\WINNT' in the path listed above.

8. save the attached file msiBlast.zip to your desktop.

(a) extract the msiBlast.exe file from zip archive.
(b) double click the downloaded msiBlast.exe file to run the executable.
(c) choose the selection show only installers of NOR.

(d) using select (Ctrl + left mouse click) of all National Instruments software that appears in MSIBlast.
(e) press the button uninstall. This allows to uninstall all entries in register MSI of National Instruments.

(f) Optional:
The repair option will open the installer of National instruments and run the option fix in the installer.

Maintenance mode will open the installer and allow the user to change the installation. To open the installation program indicate nothing in command line Arg? Dialog box.

9. restart your computer.

10. you should be ready to install your software. For the cleanest possible installation, first install all of your
software application, such as LabVIEW, Measurement Studio development, etc. Perform a custom installation so that you can
Install just the request WITHOUT DRIVERS EVERYTHING. Restart your PC after each installation request.
Even if the installation program does not tell you to restart, it would probably be a good idea to do it anyway.
Now install the software driver and follow the associated user manuals. Some older non-Plug-and-Play hardware
must be installed before the pilot. Download the latest versions of the drivers that support your hardware
She draws from our drivers and software updates (link below) and install them one by one, reset after each
install.

11. Lastly, stop and re - install your hardware. When you start back, he must be detected in MAX.

Kind regards
