Hello Tweakie, I agree,it will probably be something simple that is wrong.  I did not swap the hard drive on the pc's.

How about using a spare axis - "A" for example (on the side of the PCB) and then set up your Mach ports and pins configuration to drive this axis as though it is the X Axis. ??

Hello Tweakie,  Thank you very much for the link you sent for the Mach optimization txt. .  It worked excellent. I have everything up and running.I don't know exactly what part of the optimization made it work because I only did the following steps.6,7,11,12,16,20,21,22,23.Once again,thank you and I thank everyone for their help.

Hello Tweakie, Thanks again . The reason I posted the steps that I took was for anyone who might have the same problem.Mach3 should run on any Pc if they follow the steps listed. I tried it on 3 Pc's that wouldn't run Mach3 before and now they can run it.
  I wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving.

According to your Mach3.xml PulseWidth is 0 (zero). It must be 1 to 15 microsecond. Config/Motor Tunning! Don't check DirLowActive in Motor Outputs. Must be red.
Regards!
