We are currently using Mach3 with the parallel port adapter software on a Windows XP system and our PC is experiencing problems. We have a new PC running Windows 7 32 bit with Mach4 and the Darwin parallel software. Currently, both of these are in demo mode to ensure that we can get the system running. The Darwin parallel software is installed and the test routine works properly but it does not appear as an option in Mach 4 when selecting motion device. We would like to get one more year from our motor controller before replacing it with a newer USB controller.
Any hints or advice is welcome,
Thanks,
