Hi Flo,
Mach3 using the Parallel Port is a combination that is not recommended / intended to be used with a laptop. You may get away with it but you will always encounter problems of one sort or another and this spindle issue may just be one of them.
Either, use a dedicated PC or an external motion controller with your laptop but they must be dedicated computers and not connected to the internet / receiving updates etc.
