Connectivity Problems? [WebWare SDK]

Options

Hey all,

I'm in a lab running two ABB IRB 140 robots, connected to a PC running Windows XP SP2 with Matlab version 6.1 & Simulink 4.1 to run the robots.  Previously the robots had been working on an older computer with Webware 4.6, Windows 98, Matlab 6.1 & Simulink 4.1, and it had been working fine. 

After porting the S-function files we used to run the robots to the new machine, we started getting a bunch of compatability errors.  We've upgraded to Webware 4.7 which is what the tech support guy told us to do; and we're at a point where the computer will talk to the controller (eg: MoveLD01 will change from 0 to 1), the controller tablet can control the robot  (eg: programming the robot using the robot controllers work), but the Matlab files we used to use to physically move the robot don't.. move.. them.  Any ideas as to what's causing the issue?
