What version of windows are you trying to install Mach on?
To use the parallel port driver, it must be a 32bit version up to Windows 7. Any 64bit version, or Windows 8 onwards, the parallel port driver will not work.
Mach3/4 itself should install and run fine on any version of windows, it's just the parallel port driver that has the version restrictions.Avoiding the rubbish customer service from AluminiumWarehouse since July '13.

Hi m_c,
Thanks for the info. I appreciate that a lot. Having read through some of the forums it looks like the issue might be that my work runs all sorts of virus software in the background which can interfere with the Mach3 installation. I am going to try and get that resolved by hopefully persuading them to let me wipe the HD and have a machine totally dedicated to the scanning unit.
Thanks again!
