This is some what scary as far as I am concerned. regarding the xml files is it ok ito copy them to a removable drive[memory stick]  and do i copy them all ?

Secondly I got into the existing registry and did not see any Mach files even when I expanded most of the arrows,if you could give some guidance it would be appreciated as where they are....regards mike hide

Thanks Ray for your help .I have been piddling with this for some time and still no joy . perhaps the installation from the start was not correct .Iam still having problems with mach mill . whhen I hit the icon I get a flash screen showing the mach mill introduction screen then everything just goes blank . If I do the same to the turn iconit brings that uo fine  withe the lazycam icon I get a notice saying I have a mach2 version loaded.

I went back to the downloads section and loaded the latest version [I think of may this year] I still have the same problem .Now I dont know ifthw whole thing is messed up or not seems what I downloaded was not he complete system otherwise the mach3mill should have turned up when selected .

To complicate things even more I have indications that ,Lost "enable40.dll" as far as that is concerned I have checked and thayt folder is still in Mach 3 folder.Other things that do not seem to be in the path are c:\winnt\system32; c:\winnt\system.

In short I am totally out of my depth and need very explicit instuctions if anyone knows what is wrong..From an absolute bald headed [all hair removed] novice,by the way I have searcged for the "installer " and there is no file by that name on my hard drive   regards mike hide

Yep and I have been trying to find a way of getting it back for a couple of days with no joy. I Am just not at all good at this as you might have guessed. what I need is explicit instructions. Unfortunately I appeared on the sceen before the computer age so it's a bit of a struggle . Will get back to you once I figure where it has gone or what I did to loose it. Funny but the other icons work fine.....regards mike hide

I have a shortcut on my desktop that used to work [Mach3mill] until I started playing around now it flashes the mill screen and then shows a blank screen .I satys it cannot find the "enable40.dll. The shortcut used to bring up the mill screen and I loaded tgw gcode into it .
