Title: HELP NEEDED - Mach3 Software not loading.
Post by: WilliamDeacon on January 07, 2020, 08:34:12 PM

Hello, I have a problem with the mach3 software. After I install mach3 (Without the parallel port driver because I am using a laptop) I try to run the program. It loads us and all I see is a blank screen. There is the toolbar at the top of the window, but the rest is white. I have tried loading the 1024.set file but nothing changes. I have tried reinstalling the program but that doesn't help either. If I could have assistance in this I would appreciate it.

My laptop is a Acer Aspire 3 A315-21-92FK

There is a screenshot attached of what the Mach3 screen looks like when I try to load it.

Also, when I load the program it gives me a error message, "Unable to open ProbeDiag.dat Error = 5" Any ideas?

I really appreciate the help, thanks.

Download the current version of Mach3 from here  https://www.machsupport.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Mach3Version3.043.exe
then install that and see if it installs correctly.
