General Mach Discussion / Re: reinstalling mach3
« on: September 30, 2008, 05:41:20 PM »Thanks Ray for your help .I have been piddling with this for some time and still no joy . perhaps the installation from the start was not correct .Iam still having problems with mach mill . whhen I hit the icon I get a flash screen showing the mach mill introduction screen then everything just goes blank . If I do the same to the turn iconit brings that uo fine withe the lazycam icon I get a notice saying I have a mach2 version loaded.
I went back to the downloads section and loaded the latest version [I think of may this year] I still have the same problem .Now I dont know ifthw whole thing is messed up or not seems what I downloaded was not he complete system otherwise the mach3mill should have turned up when selected .
To complicate things even more I have indications that ,Lost "enable40.dll" as far as that is concerned I have checked and thayt folder is still in Mach 3 folder.Other things that do not seem to be in the path are c:\winnt\system32; c:\winnt\system.
In short I am totally out of my depth and need very explicit instuctions if anyone knows what is wrong..From an absolute bald headed [all hair removed] novice,by the way I have searcged for the "installer " and there is no file by that name on my hard drive regards mike hide
Mike,
I'd suggest you backup your XML and license files, then go to ControlPanel->Add or Remove Programs, and un-install and Mach2, Mach3, LazyCAM, etc. you find there. Then go into MyComputer and delete the directories, if the un-install left any of them lying around. Finally, re-install Mach3, and copy the XML and license files into the new install directories. Sounds to me like you've got a mix of Mach2 and Mach3, perhaps installed on top of each other. The bext thing to do is just start clean. It should be very simple....
Regards,
Ray L.
