Well that's me told... I'll get my coat.

I don't beleive it, the driver test is working on a normal XP installation and no optimisation, ha ha.
Now I'll have to disable things one by one to see which one it is that killed it.
XP installed in Standard PC mode
Go through XP optimisation
Motherboard drivers installed
Install Mach3 and reboot
Run driver test - no line, and zero pulses per second, even though says system under Mach3 control
NOTE: ***** Before doing ANY optimising, run MAch3 first, odds are you dont need to optimise.
***** and before optimising, use msconfig to shut off all Startup Items, then reboot.
Killing stratup Items fixed 90% of computers having any troubel with MAch3.
Optimising should NEVER be done priot to knowing a problem exists.
The reasons I need to pause are to change tooltips, tweak Z zero, and check part dimensions. Is there an accepted way to do this without restarting the spindle manually?
