Mach 3 installing into Windows 10 AND *11* 64 bit

[@Dynoworksperformance]

I fought with this for days. Watched your video and loaded perfectly. Thank you very much!

[@johnpaine524]

I have installed mach3 in a laptop running widows 11 and it is running fine.

[@jgabrielcastillo9924]

Disculpa tengo una consulta, con qué haces la comunicación desde la laptop al Mach3? Mi laptop no tiene entrada para puerto paralelo, o tú usas el UC-100 (USB to Parallel Adapter)?

[@akaCIV]

Thanks a lot Roger !

[@saydiy1528]

good job. a very basic question, how can I know if my MACH3 pc connected with my CNC machine or not? thanks.

Hello sir, Please consider making a video about manual jogging for creating corresponding Gcodes. It will help in making mortis and tenon type custom wood working jobs.

[@sasasasa711]

I think I have seen jcode pluggin for mach3. Can you explain it in a video.

[@blairg420]

Hi Roger, thanks for this information! I am running Mach3 on an older PC winXP which sadly is not booting up... It's been a while, but was wanting to run my mill on my newer PC win10 64 bit. I was using C11G BOB/parrallel port on the old PC ..what would you recommend as an updated motion controller? I read that small USB red board you use in another vid is not win10 compatible? Hoping not to have to redo too much, I have also read about the UC100 but don't think that works with 64 bit...thanks in advance!

[@rogerwebb9600]

Hi, you will need a Win 10 driver for it

[@blairg420]

Thanks Roger, I see so that board would work with the win10 driver, assume that can be downloaded online from?

[@SA-HOME]

Who is already tormented with mach3 try normal cnc systems with a motion controller like ViS cnc motion

[@cncmexpertdesign8916]

nice video. one question.... using windows 10 and db25 bob it is usable with a pcie to db25 adapter card? thank you in advance for your answer.

[@wayneshephard]

No, it will only work with motion controllers according to the Mach Website info

[@jasonwright1753]

Just bought chinese 6040 with a usb connection, so am i right in assuming i jyst need to buy a mach 3 licence and download and install as per your video on my windows 10 pc without the need for any different / more modern controller? Great video by the way

[@rogerwebb9600]

It should be ok

[@jasonwright1753]

So the cnc arrived, i tried to download mach 3 from newfangled onto my mini pc running windows 10, downloaded and installed fine then i got an error message saying i needed to repair the c drive, i followed the prompts znd subsequently got the blue bricked screen, nothing i seem to do sorts it out. Ive now ordered an older pc with xp professional installed

hello mr roger, How can I program from match to make a mechanical part

[@rogerwebb9600]

I have a video to help you. kzbin.info/www/bejne/a32zqJWDbrCqnLM

[@rogerkieferII]

Im using a MK4V USB controller with my Windows 11 and have Mach 3 on the PC. Everything is setup correctly, but Mach wont control the machine. Any ideas?

[@rogerwebb9600]

Yes, it will be the driver for the BOB

[@DennisDavis-u7i]

Roger, what controller are you using?

[@rogerwebb9600]

Mach 3

[@bobreichel]

I loaded a gcode into mach3 and all it wants to do is draw a big circle. I tried mach3 & mach3 plasma processing in sheet cam. Any idea what is wrong? The part is correct in the tool path yet it won't follow the path.😢

[@rodneyroberts]

Any reason you do not use Mach 4?

[@fifi5627]

sorry it doesn't work for win64 11 . I got mach3Mill shortcut on desktop, but the source is missing

[@user-tn1hk6zm2freedom]

I can not get the mach3 driver to install no matter what I do. Mach3.sys is the driver? I read it was. I have tried everything and no luck getting mach3 working.

[@rogerwebb9600]

What BOB are you using

[@user-tn1hk6zm2freedom]

I am using DM542T drivers same as you.@@rogerwebb9600

[@user-tn1hk6zm2freedom]

Will the mach3 demo version run the cnc machine so I can test it?

[@wayneshephard]

I can answer for you, absolutely yes, for 500 lines, jogging etc, so you can setup and do basic work

[@user-tn1hk6zm2freedom]

@@wayneshephard How do I do it? I could not get it to work on my laptop.

[@wayneshephard]

@user-tn1hk6zm2f ah yes, Laptops can be a real pain, if you only have a serial port it's not going to work, often you won't have a fully capable parallel port on a laptop, better to go with a desktop typically, got the spec out model of your Laptop?

[@user-tn1hk6zm2freedom]

@@wayneshephard I have 3 laptops. Have a Lenovo ideopad 3. Have 2 Toshibas one is a satellite L755D other one is a Toshiba Portege R835-P50 running Linux.

[@wayneshephard]

@user-tn1hk6zm2f best thing you can do is research each model via Google or with your multimeter, you'll need to grab a parallel cable and schematic, then use Mach3 to enable our initiate motion and check the output pins of the parallel port cable for 5 volts, if it's 2-3 it's not going to work

Where downlader to licences?👀

[@robertoghorads]

with win10 64bits work the parallel port?

[@MurdochCarpenter]

Nope, only with external motion controller and over USB or Ethernet
