Solution: If you installed LabVIEW from a shared hard drive and the drive letter has changed, this could happen. You could ensure that the drive letter is correct.
If drive letters have been changed on your computer, then re-assign the original letter to the CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, or operating system drive. Follow the steps appropriate to your operating system:
Windows XP Users
1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
2. In Control Panel, double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click Computer Management.
3. In the Computer Management tree, click Disk Management.
4. Right-click the CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive, or the drive that contains the operating system, and then click Change Drive Letter and Paths.
5. Click Change, and change it to the original drive letter. Click OK, and then click Close.
Windows 2000 Users

4. Right-click the CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive, or the drive that contains the operating system, and then click Change Drive Letter and Path.
5. Click Edit, and change it to the original drive letter. Click OK, and then click Close.
Windows NT Users
