Mach2 Relase 1.0


Larry Ragan
 

Hi Art

I downloaded release version 1.0 and tried to install it. The install
program locks up after it is started. I downloaded it a 2nd time with
the same results. Tried restarting windows with no luck. This is the
first time I have had a problem with installation for a long time.
Currently have RC3.0 installed. Any suggestions?

RC3 to date has had so many changes! 7th July to date is at least 4
versions plus many of Art's phantom ones, plus registry to XML in V6
for settings!!

What OS are you running? If XP is it up to date with security fixes
and sobig.f virus free?

I'd be tempted to uninstall mach2, search the registry for Mach2,
delete every value (uninstall doesn't) search for Mach2.sys and delete
those, delete the Mach2 directory, re-boot THEN install RV1.0.

Re-boot again after installation - then reset all your settings from
scratch, exit Mach2 & re-start (some settings still don't stick
without close/reopen program).

Then try again!

You've nothing to loose, your settings have gone anyway!

Hi,

What brand of mainboard does your computer have? If you answer with Gigabyte then that's more than likely the problem because that board seems to have absolutely no tolerance for Mach2.

That's a bit of a sweeping statement? I've now got 3 PC's here, one of
which is a Gigabyte and it runs Mach2 mill fine (The others are an
Asus and an Intel) None run lathe well though...

Larry:

The install locks up? Hmm, I have heard of bad installs downloading. Try to
right click and select save as, this sometimes forces it to finish. You may
have a bad download. Compare the new download size with the old.

Thanks, Let me know if the problem persists. I'll email it to you if
necessary...

Thanks,

Any news on "TURN" ?

Is there only me having problems with speed control, or is there only
me trying it?
