Well have a box that came with it that i plug the stepper motors into and attach the parallel port cord into to and from my computer, but no drivers came with that
thanks

The drivers are in the box,,,  Or you can call them controllers. here's what I'm referring to http://www.geckodrive.com/, http://www.xylotex.com/,

ok well i have something like that yes,
so are you saying i should open it up and change some wires?

Nope, you need to open it up and see what you have,  You said the seller didn't give you any documentation.  Once you find out what you have, you should be able to go to the manufactures website, and donwload the manuals for your equipment.  Chances are, all you will have to do once you get the manual, is change the pin settings in Mach to get you going.  If you can't find the manual online, post what you find here, and someone should be able to help you out.

Awesome thanks man, i will open it up now and see what we have

ok opened it up, no manufacture name anywhere to be seen
i did notice some writing on the PCB
here is what it said may mean something to you experts.
pin 2 - XDIR
pin 3 - XSTEP
    4 - YDIR
    5 - YSTEP
    6 - ZDIR
    7 - ZSTEP
    8 - ADIR
    9 - ASTEP

Open up Mach,click on config,ports and pins, and then motor outputs. make sure the settings match. If not, just click on the box, and put the right number in. for example, for your x Axis, you want the enabled box checked, Step pin# would be 3, and Dir Pin# would be 2.

Yes mate just did that and wow and behold it WORKS, Hoorah, finally i can sleep peacefully lol
thanks so much for you help it is very very appreciated

NO WAY! Congratulations! You are going to sleep now? All this work and no play? Unless you know something about the next step, the fun has just started! I know I wanted to help you as I was just there a few months ago. Enjoy
