uninstall?

[dmerrll]

Hey all, I havent posted in awhile, been out of town on a job for 8 months. When I arrived home I had agreed to buy from someone else a CNClite package that they had never installed. though it would compliment my copy of AS3000 that I was not using yet. I had JRACO wingcnc and a 1730 isa card, Galil, that replaced my dead Anilam Crusader2. The new package came with a 4 axis card so that I can control my spindles VFD. Oh joy. Well my computer was to slow for CNClite and they no longer make Socket 370 processors. So a new box was in order. Switched cards, checked operation with WSDK. Great. Then I loaded CNC lite. Nothing has worked since. I need to go back to what I had for a time to make some parts. Is there a method for uninstalling CNClite. I can find nothing in the documentation or the website or through explorer file search. I hope that later with just the OI that I can sort the bugs out. My Amps are velocity control I will try just a couple motors and Glentek amps in torque mode and see if the controller will hold them. Sure wish WSDK and my version of Cnc lite would co exist.

Thanks for any suggestions
David

David,

Try checking this thread for ideas on resolving driver conflicts. You may have to check versions of what you are using with Camsoft.

OH NO!!! you got the dreaded Galil/Camsoft driver conflict. Been there done that.

You would want to first do away with the Windows Registry entries for the Galil Terminal program these are creating a conflict plus also delete any mixed-match drivers using CleanReg.exe

REGCLEAN.exe can be found in your C:\GALILOI directory
How to remove conflicting or old drivers from the Windows registry and Windows folders.

If all else fails here is how to straighten it out for sure:

1.) Uninstall Galil software
2.) Search your whole computer in all folders for these files are delete them.
DMC32.DLL
DMCBUS32.DLL
DMCGC32.DLL
DMCNET.EXE
DMCNET.TLB
DMCPAR32.DLL
DMCREG.OCA
DMCREG.OCX
DMCSER32.DLL
DMCSHELL.OCX
GLWDMISA.INF
GLWDMISA.SYS
GLWDMPCI.INF
GLWDMPCI.SYS
2.) Run the REGCLEAN.exe program
3.) Remove the Galil card from computer
4.) Re-install Camsoft software
5.) Re-install Galil card
6.) Launch the CNC Controller
7.) If this worked stop here
8.) RegCard.exe enter choice 2
9.) GalilReg enter address
10.) Launch the CNC Controller


FWIW, the most recent versions of Camsoft now work with Galil and this is no longer a problem. Good reason to upgrade.

Thanks for the quick replys. I had read all of the "Dreaded Galil file conflicts" though I thought with my acumen..... I could have beat it. Now having run out of time and patience I need to make some parts before I have to go out of town again. So what I was looking for was a way to do a clean uninstal of my camsoft products. I would think there should be an unistall program buried in there somewhere.
Thanks all, David
