Installation Mach3 3.042.032
« on: November 17, 2009, 07:28:59 AM »
Hi

On my computer was installed Mach3 version R3.037 and I have updated to version 3.042.032. But now I have a problem. When I want to edit my G-code, the editor starts up very, very slow and typing in the editior is also very slow. Saving etc.
Mach3 works further fine.

I de-installed Mach3, also the  Mach3 folder on the C drive and the the driver in the divice manager.

I have reinstalled Mach3 version 3.042.032, but the computer don't ask for rebooting. Is this normal, so the problems are still the same as before. Or are there still files, I have to delete?

Anybody knows what's going wrong?

With kindly regards from the Netherlands

It is normal for it not to reboot if you have had Mach installed previously as the reboot is only needed the very first time.
Afraid I dont know what your problem with the editor is, works fine here. Only thing I can suggest is see if opening a notepad document from windows rather than Mach is OK. The other thing would be to check on General Config page that the location of notepad is correct, although I think it must be or dont think it would open at all.

Hi Hood,

Thanks for the quick reply.

I found out what the problem wreak.
For some in / ouputs I use the Pokeys. The Pokeys plugin for Mach3 is not the problem, but when I pull out the USB plug of Pokeys, Mach3 and notebook works fine. When I Install the Pokeys USB plug, the problem is there.

In the Pokeys forum I can't find an answer. I use the latest software for Mach3 and Pokeys.

Try an older plugin for the Pokeys and see if that helps.
