Why does my computer crash with a blue screen when stopping continuous acquisitions from a Measurement Computing 6000 series cards on a Pentium 4 with the Data Acquisition Toolbox?

I am trying to perform continuous acquisition with a Measurement Computing 6000 series board and the Data Acquisition Toolbox. However, when I STOP the device, my system crashes with a blue screen.

This has been confirmed as a bug in the Measurement Computing Drivers when using Hyperthreaded (Pentium 4) machines.

 Upgrading to the most recent version of Instacal will fix the problem.  As an alternative, you can disable Hyperthreading in the BIOS of your computer.
