    Default Mach3 +motors wont move

    Hey everyone!
    I need a little help with an issue im having with my mach3/machine. I built the machine myself and i have everything connected and working okey when i use my laptop (the parallel port is connected to a USB) + the system is wondows 10, the machine works perfectly fine.
    I tried switching to a pc which had a windows XP and used the parallel port without the usb connector because the pc already has a place for it, and the machine didnt work. Also had the (VB failure, check system) error popping but disappears randomly, the machine still not working.
    I reinstalled mach3 3 times (and yes i did retart the pc

    Guys, it turns out that the windows xp or the pc itself was the problem because i tried using another pc which also had windows xp in it and the machine worked perfectly fine.
    (P.s the windows xp that was in it was not a legal one)
    So that is probably the issue
    Thanks

    I would not have thought that that would be the problem. Maybe something else was causing it?
    It might pay you to keep digging to try and pin it down.
