That's why the Mach3 manual states that laptops are not recommended and are unsuported.
    There's nothing nasty there at all, you are being over-sensitive and paranoid!
    I didn't even mention your chosen screen name :D
    You think that's too expensive? You're not a Model Engineer are you? :D

    I've read this thread and in fairness I don't think Magicniner was saying anything untoward. It is true that Mach3 advises against using laptops as they can cause instability.That doesn't mean it will definitely fail, but it might.

    BTW, I use a laptop and USB with absolutely no problems, but then I am not using Mach3. I use Kflop with KmotionCNC.

    I have no access to write to your profile, has someone edited your profile?
    If so you should report it to admin immediately as administrative access is required to do that!

    I am afraid that you will not get answers with an attitude like this. The only question I see in the above is you asking if the screen shot looks good and then you expect people to re read your posts to find out what and where the problem is without you bothering to find the post No. yourself.

    I did send you some links to vids and the manual for Mach3 but you don't appear to want to help yourself.

    I suggest that you read your thread from the beginning again and reevaluate what you have said.
