OK. This was a while ago now, and while no one wants a thing that doesn't work per se, I know that you know it wouldn't take much to get going. Alas, just bought the PC from my mill in to the house, and I've got it to start up, but then it doesn't, then does, then it beeps, then it wont accept the password etc, and so it goes on. So it is the PC.....again.

Now, do I buy one of those 21 pin to usb adaptors, which I've only just seen do actually exist, hook it up to a laptop, install mach 3, set some basic pins up and have another go at selling, or just say to you guys: Hey, Denford Micromill, needs a controller, but has collets, cutters, and some ali, £500, come and get it?
