I agree totally with Brian. You need to install mach 3, lots more goodies and 90% of people here are running 3. It is easier to help when we are all on the same page, er- program.
Depending on you level of noobieness the g code might not make sense. So here is a little explanation of what he has written.
G01 X1.0 F30.0
G01 (linear interpolation) X1.0 (move x axis 1 unit (inch or mm, whatever you have setup)) F30 (feed rate units per min, in this case 30)
A G0 X1.0 would move the machine as fast as you have the motors tuned in the motor tuning diag to x1..
In mach 3 there is a button at the bottom of the screen by the reset button that says gcodes, click that. It is a list of the gcodes that mach supports and a brief desc of what it does. Google can give more details on the codes and their usage.
Or ask for help here.
