Trouble tuning GECKO 320 Servo Drives

I am facing a new problem tuning a set of 4 320 gecko drives. I am using the following system:

Software: Mach3
computer: Dell c640 2.o GHZ INTEL PROCESSOR
1 mbyte ram
Interface; SoundLogic Combo Board, from Campbell Design

Servo:
Power Supply: 65 VDC 10Amp
x & y servos: 875 InOz
z servo 1125 In0z

My problem is that regardless of the settings of the three pots, I get faulting. I have reduced the speed, to 50 IPM and 15 sec acceleration. The Step and direction pulses are set at 5.

The machine is a Industrial Hobbies Square column Mill.

I set up mach3 with a kernal speed of 25KHz. I can function the jog but it will fault out every time.

Any help will be appreciated. We scoped GECKO output and cannot get the dampening correct. The motors seem to be tuned correctly, they will hum when you attempt to over-power the servo.
