I just manually reinstalled my driver and it works fine now.  I am missing the button labled simplify or somethin to that nature.  It was in the lower left corner before now there is a blank space next to the "g-codes" button.  Is  this bad or is it just a change from the first download?

After a long bad day yesterday got worse.  I was using turbocad v11 to render a part for dxf to g-code conversion in mach 2 mill.  I had been up working since 7:00 am the morning before.  All the sudden the mach software wouldn't go past to first line of code.  I looked at the code and all seemed well so i figured a restart would be in order so i restarted the mach2 mill software and the turbocad.  When i brought mach2 mill up again it just showed a grey screen and down in the left corner said ready.  I could still access all bars at the top but there was no screen.  I opened mach2 lathe and different wizards in the mill program and all worked well.  So i uninstallled and reinstalled the whole package and called it good for the night.  I access it this morning to see if it fixed the problem but didn't.  I am still no able to go past the first line of code, however the program screen is coming up again with the editor and dro.  To check that it was not the g-code i pulled up a program that was small and verified to run and the same thing happens.  It stops on the first line of code.  What to do about this?
