General Mach Discussion / Yet again, UC100 issues
« on: January 23, 2014, 05:22:27 PM »
First post so here goes. Trying to get a new Micro Proto 3000 up and running. Computer is HP laptop running Windows 8 (don't get me started). I've done everything by the book inre installing the UC100 including disabling the secure boot function in the BIOS. The drivers will not install so I am not getting the screen in Mach3 where I can select the UC100 in lieu of a printer port.
After attempting to install the drivers and upon opening Mach3 I'm getting "Plug in DLL defective. Reload". I click ok and the next screen says "UC100V2_133.dll, defective plugin found, ignoring", click ok again and Mach3 opens but without the screen to select the controller and with no functionality in Mach3's screen.
I know enough about the guts of this stuff to be really dangerous. Can anyone help me over the hump?
Thanks,
Chas.
