General Mach Discussion / Re: Servo taig help needed

I think I may have fixed the problem.
I had tried using the guide for installing for XP and that made no difference in the movement or helped to fix the drifting or repeatability. It just kept drifting off to the side each time it was run.
I decided to try a different approach, Hardware. I thought that maybe there was a fault in the onboard controller for the ports.
So, I went to Newegg.com and found one of the add-on cards for parallel ports and installed it. After changing the general settings, the mill was acting very different.
Right now it is repeating perfectly, even after shutting off and on, there are no problems. Now all I have to do is getting it cutting.
