Solution
First, verify that your computer meets the hardware requirements for LabVIEW Real-Time (RT) Targets as listed in
Requirements for Desktop PCs as LabVIEW Real-Time Targets. If the hardware specifications for your desktop don't match the specific model numbers in the requirements, it's an unsupported configuration. The most often incompatible parts are:
- The Ethernet Chipset
- The Processor's Model and Architecture
- See note in Additional Information for Intel® Core i3, i5, and i7
If your machine does comply with the requirements for RT Desktops:
- Try setting up the Utility USB another USB drive
- If using a desktop computer, try using the backplane USB ports, as they usually go directly to the motherboard, instead of using a USB hub.
- When the Waiting for USB to initialize… message appears: remove the USB drive, wait a few seconds, and reinsert the USB drive.
- Update the BIOS for your computer make and model. Make sure you use the most recently released one.
