MACH 3 requirements

[manofgresley]

Many thanks for your help, this as left me with a problem. I have followed your instructions, and it definateley say's "64 bit technology" but equally important , i think, is i have also discovered during this investigation that my PC has an "INTEGRATED" video card fitted, something else MACH 3 states will not work. So it looks like i have a decision to make - Do i purchase a computer that runs on 32 bit, with a non integrated video card ? have my local PC Guru convert my current PC, or go along the road of "ETHERNET CONTROLLER" whatever one of those is. Any help or advise on this issue will be gratefully accepted.

Ray, Got a load of Dell computers here that have been bought just for running Mach3 on PP.
work well and as a stand alone just for a machine we have had no problems with them.

I would like to get MACH 3 or MACH 4 Software but i'm not sure of the hardware? I have a UC100, is this all I need to connect to a 3040t cnc with a paralell interface, using Mach3 or Mach 4? Please tell me what I need hardware to run either Mach 3 or 4!
Thanks!

Don't need anything too powerful. Any PC capable of running XP upwards with the parallel port will work. Personally I would go with a PC running Win7.
