Papa Fabio.

Unfortunately, that is a fake license.

Hi Alex,

Welcome to the forum.

Sounds like you will be having exciting times with your new venture - don't forget to post some pictures of the things you make (we all love pictures).

Hi ffulmer,

Have you by any chance accidentally turned off  the 'Jog ON/OFF' button on the main screen ??

Hi bteigrob,

If you are using the parallel port then the most common problem is failure to set the LPT port address.
The Mach3 Manual explains in detail the setting up procedure http://www.machsupport.com/help-learning/product-manuals/

Perhaps best to contact SolidCAM directly to ask if they have a post processor specifically for Mach3. Failing that the the basic Fanuc post processor is worth a try.

Unfortunately CNCMogul / Gryphon / et.al. has the reputation of supplying pirate software. http://cncmogulsucks.com/

Before we proceed you need to check with Artsoft licensing http://www.machsupport.com/contact-us/ that you do indeed have a genuine Mach3 license.

You will also need to check with Vectric http://www.vectric.com/company/contact.html that you have a genuine License for Aspire.

I will give you a reasonable time period to confirm the license situation.

Thanks, will try that.
Just to be clear, it is not the PC that gets stuck, rather the table loses position and moves to some odd place.

Ahh - that's a different problem - I thought it was the PC that stopped.

Before going further could you please check with Licensing http://www.machsupport.com/contact-us/ to verify that you are using a genuine Mach3 license.
