General Mach Discussion / Mach 3 upgrade

« on: April 19, 2007, 05:25:52 PM »

Hello,
 I'm new to the forum though I have been running Mach 2 for a couple of years now. I'm considering upgrading to Mach 3, primarily because of the single block in cutter comp "bug". I've been bitten a couple of times by this bug. The problem is that I use my machine to produce income, and I don't want to risk screwing things up. Therefore I have a couple of questions:

---- Is the single block in cutter comp mode thing truly "fixed" in the latest version of Mach 3?

---- Can I load Mach 3 onto the same computer I'm running Mach 2 on?

-----Is there any way to transfer the configuration information from Mach 2 to Mach 3?

---- Can I still continue running Mach 2 during the time period needed to configure,become comfortable with, and change over to Mach 3?

---- If the answer to the previous question is yes.......Are there any things that I need to be careful of that could render Mach 2 useless during the changeover period? ( aside from my own stupidity)

 I realize that that was more than a couple of questions, but I really don,t have the time to go back and reconfigure, test, and de-bug Mach 2 if something goes wrong. Any help on this subject would be greatly appreciated.
