    Mastercam X2

    So, I had a computer failure and have to install X2 on the new PC. I have it up and SP2 loaded but for the life of me cannot remember where or how to install the Haas post I have. Also, is there a way to bring my setting from my last PC to the new PC? I feel like a boob for asking but I have not had to do this in a year and a half.

    Thanks,

    Gerame

    Did you get to backup before it failed, as I suggested before ?
    if you did, then these folders should be restored

    - \\Config ( Mcam configs go here )
    - \\cnc_machines full directory ( MD and .control files go here )
    - \\Mill\ full directory ie ops, posts, tools ( custom tools, tool libraries ) post goes in the post directory
    - \\Lathe\ full directory
    - \\Router\ full directory
    - \\Wire\ full directory
    - \\Data\ full directory (where you place supporting files for remachining etc )
    - plus all your MCX files
    - plus any downloaded updates, service packs, or add-ons that you have aquired
    - plus any convertor activation codes, etc

    Thanks Superman, the transfer of my settings when perfectly. I had forgot that I already asked that question.

    As far as the post, it was kicking my butt. I ended up calling Mastercam directly (my reseller would not return my calls ) and they helped me. For some reason it was looking on the F: for the mmd file. Changed that to the C: ans presto, MC is up and running. Now, time to do some test runs on my Haas to verify everything is good to go.

    Thanks again to those who tried to help...
