Mach3 under Vista / Re: Windows 7 BSOD after exit Mach3

Excellent piece of detective work tracking down those which work and those that do not. 

I think the problem relates to the combination of your particular OS and later Mach3 versions rather than just a mach3 issue.

It is doubtful if a later version of Mach3 (assuming one is released) will solve your particular problem so my best advice is to use a Mach3 version which works for you.
In my case I use 3.043.056 and I have absolutely no need to update that to any later version.

Hope this helps.

Not much help really but...
It sounds like your video card ram is insufficient - try disabling the toolpath display (diagnostics screen) if everything then runs fine then that should be the proof you need.

Hi Dalymople,

Welcome to the forum.

This section is really just for introductions so I would be best if you post your questions, as a new topic, in the Mach3 General section where it will get seen by all and I am sure there will be many suggestions to help resolve the problems you are experiencing.

The Active Hi / Active Lo on slaved motors will not be causing the problem.

What microstep setting (on your controller) are you using for the slaved axes ??   Is it different from the other axes ??

Hi Fred,

When you make a post (assuming you use the reply button) or when posting a new topic - there is a box which says 'Message Icon'. The usual icon is 'General' but if you click the arrow you can choose the icon that best suits your topic.

I have a small dog at the moment who really does not like cats (pretty much the usual with small dogs) so I have no cat at this time but I still have a soft spot for cats, thus the avatar.
