thanks, i am going to change my breakout board and see what happens i have a g100 i bought when they first came out and never hooked it up the cnc4pc was easyer for me because there was more how to doc. it is on all axis just my y was the first that i noticed was not correct. i had a servo on my y axis when ii first noticed it i with steppers on the other 2 and thought it was just it because when i checked my axis and set them it was one inch  and everything checked out. till i went to start a project and my y axis over shot my work. i checked others at one inch and it was okay but when i checked other lenths on my x it was not okay. i did driver test again and it looks good.
