Have you set the correct steps per unit?

Yes if you have the wrong port address, the wrong pins set up, a faulty parallel Port cable  etc  the DRO's will move but nothing will happen at your motors.
Motor tuning is where you set the steps per unit, Velocity and acceleration.

If both computers were on board ports then it is likely they will be the same. To check however go to Control Panel in Windows then System, then Hardware and finally Device manager. When that opens go down to Ports and then expand and double click on the LPT port. Look on the resources tab and you should see the address there, it is the first 4 digits you want.
