My indoor computer runs Windows 7. I used Via-Cad 6 to draw my part and save as a DXF R-12 file. I open the same DXF file in LazyCam and edit it. I then post it to Mach 3. It opens in Mach 3 fine. I test run in Mach 3. It works fine. Now how do I get this g-code program from my indoor computer, that is running Windows 7, to my shop computer that is running XP? I tried using a thumb drive to transfer the program, but the shop computer doesn't recognize it. I know I need to save or convert it to some common format. Would some show me how to do that?
Thank you very much, I am a little computer slow, and I need some computer love here.
