Hi have been running mach3 on XP for 4years never any problems
Am going to put new computer onto newly built router
They all come with windows 7 or 8
Will mach 3 run ok on windows 7 or 8 ?
I think there used to be problems with vista

Hi Colin,

Just a few observations...

If you are using the parallel port then you need to have the 32 bit version of Windows 7.
Windows 8 does not support use of the parallel port.
An external motion controller will be required for 64 bit OS versions and/or Windows 8.

Tweakie.

Hi Colin,
if your chasing Windows 7 32 bit and cant find any, try asking the computer companies(HP,Acer etc) for Windows 7 Commercial systems with parallel ports. Much better quality however most only have std video and turn of UAC otherwise you will have all sorts of bother.
