I downloaded it and played around with it a bit (not in the shop though). Everything other than the control part seems to work. I may try this on my machine though. I like some of the features.

What couldn't you get to work?

I can't get the setup.exe to go through on the winXP. It keeps saying

16 bit Windows Subsystem
c:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose 'Close' to terminate the application.

I was able to get it working when I tried the usinage32.exe but only some parts of the program load. I am still unable to really try it out. I have written to the maker and just waiting for a responce.

The program pics look excellent. If I recall there was a free CAD program called ninos....wonder if it is the same guy. The price is good too.

Here's what I had to do. After you download all the files (10 I think for XP), extract all the files into the same directory. I used WinRar to extract them.

They should all extract to 'whereveryouextractthemto\ninos'. This will give you 3 sub directories and 122 files in the \ninos directory. Find the setup.exe file in \neno and double click. Took me a couple tries to get it right also.

From what I can tell, it doesn't actually install any program files. Just puts some stuff in the windows directory, and adds start menu items. Everything you need is still in the \ninos directory.

I'm using NINOS and I have to say that having played with Mach, Turbcnc, KellyCam and others, this is the best integrated package I've come across.

With V2.10, the install has been reduced to one zip file.

Thanks. Are you using it? It looks pretty straightforward and simple. How do you like it? I need something and it is the only reasonably priced CAM I have found.
