I'm having trouble getting Mach 3 installed.
The software seems to install and then errors on the driver install at the end.
When running drivertest.exe I get the "No Driver Sensed Installed. Run Driver Test"I have tried to manually install the driver but get the following -
"An error ocured during the intallation of the device.
The system cannot find the file specified"
I can see the file but the cumputer starts downloading the Mach3.inf file and then halts.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled the software a few times and trying to get past this but No luck.
I have checked the system with Spybot and no problems.
Any body have any ideas?????

I have the same problem. I un-installed and reinstalled program several times. I cannot remove the driver manually because it does not seem to be installed, at least not where the manual says it can be found. I hunted down and removed the Mach3.sys file from the system directory and tried to manually install a new one. The installer reports a file not found error after opening the inf file.
I am dead in the water until I get this resolved!
There must be a hook in the registry that can clear this up.
any ideas anyone?
Thanks.

Resolved the problem using XP system restore command to undo the latest update. It then allowed me to install the latest software and driver.
See: Start/programs/accessories/system tools/system restore. Hopefully you have a recent restore point that does not undo too much. Restore does not remove data files.
Thanks.

Are you un checking the Install Driver at the end of the install?

Learned my lesson.. never install the driver a second time.
Yes I had clicked on install the driver option, but forgot to reboot because I though it would not overlay or mess up the one already installed. I had it running yesterday. I am not sure what I would have done without the option to revert to an earlier XP setup.
