Exclamation Help !!! Need someone to setup my machine im in Independence Kansas

I have all but given up on getting my cnc router up and running. I have tried every which combination trying to setup the mach 3 software. I had it setup on my home pc doing a trial run. I put it out in my garage and tried running my laptop and non of my settings worked with the inputs and outputs. I now have swapped out the computers with my home pc out there. Anyone living near the area I will pay you to come out and get me up in running. If not im just going to sell everything and get out CNC completely. I have a new 3 axis controller board and a new xylotex power supply and fan. The router has a new mount machined of aluminum for my rotozip. The router is a 22x20 area and a z of about 5". It has thompson quickslides, all aluminum construction the base is steel. It also has limit switches on all axis. I need help getting this up and running please. So feel free to email me directly.

Does it act as if mach 3 is not hooked up....does the dro show its moving but it really isnt...If so check that the port address in the pins and port page matches the address on the computer you are using.....also make sure there is a check mark in the port 1 enabled box..
