Title: Newbie...Win7 problems
Post by: pjbrunner on December 05, 2011, 07:36:12 PM
Thank you for welcoming me to this forum.  I've used Mach3 on my CNC Router for about two years now.

I've recently upgraded to a new desktop computer (Windows7, unfortunately), and when trying to run Mach3 it states "VB Failure.  Check System".  What does this mean?

Probably related, I have not been able to get Mach3 to control the CNC.  Mach3 states that the Com Port 1 is not open or active, but the operating system says it is.  Suggestions?
