General Mach Discussion / Mach3 problems

« on: August 02, 2018, 08:38:49 PM »

I have had Mach3 installed on 2 pc for awhile. The one in the house is a Vista pc I installed to do some prelim work. The other pc in my shop is a windows 7 pro that is also hokked up the my cnc router. I haven't used either in awhile and wanted to start again. When I tried to load Mach3 on the Vista machine, the shortcut was dead and I can't find the ese file anywhere on the pc. When I tried to load it on the windows 7 pro machine, the Artsoft logo appears and then the pc reboots. What's up with that?

General Mach Discussion / New to CNC and need some assistance please

« on: January 24, 2016, 03:11:59 PM »

I recently purchased a 6040Z 4 axis Chinese CNC for hobby use. I have the basics set up and am at the trial stage. My problem lies in the X control. When I push the right (+) arrow, the machine travels left (-) and visa versa. The Z and Y controls seem to work correctly. I aslo have no control of the A (rotary axis). Can anyone offer up a fix?
