OK, so I changed the acceleration to 5 and now I just get the blue screen of death. The Gcode might run for a minute or two but some times will freeze up my computer before it even starts to run.

Sorry Hood,
Don't really know much about this machine. The computer I do know that it has XP pro, running 1 or 2gig of ram and the video card meets the spect listed on the site. The machine its self is a 24" X 36" cnc router (guessing more like a mill) running stepper motors. The machine starts cutting really nice at first the about 30 to 40 min into the cut it starts acting like it forgot where it was or repets the same step over. I hope this is enough info. I'm at work and not sitting infront of the machine otherwise I could probably tell you more. Thanks

Please help! My projects always start out great and within 30 or 40 min into the cut it starts to mess up. running required machine with XP pro and no other software installed.
