MATLAB: Cannot run xPC tartget

xpctarget

Hi everybody, I am testing Mathworks xPC Target on an embedded PC. I tried with both RS232 and TCP/IP communication. Everytime, the xPC Loader ran and display the following image without any error.
When I ran xpctest from the host computer, it said I had either RS232 connection problem (in case of using RS232), or cannot ping the target (with TCP/IP).
This is urgent, any help or suggestion are highly appreciated.

Anh,
We've had some trouble with the graphics in some PCs when used as a target machine. This looks like your machine might be one of those.
You didn't say which version of Matlab you're using. You didn't say what make this target machine is.
This kind of problem is one of the strong reasons we have partnered with SpeedGoat to put together machines that we know work. There are just too many 'other' machines to have any confidence that all machines work.
Please contact MathWorks tech support about this issue, but the answer may be that you'll only be able to use this machine in text mode with graphics disabled.
