If the old one doesn't support it, you hve no choice but to get a new machine. I understand that your are wanting to upgrade to a 64 bit windows operating system and your old computer doesn't support it. I still do not completely follow what your are doing and asking. The mechanical engineering, connection stepper motor drivers is the simple bit, its the interface between PC Software and 64bit usb which seems to be limited. It would be very helpful to have a list of 64bit compatible interfaces ? But are you replacing your CNC machine too? If so, which machine? Why not ask the machine manufacturer what best control software to use? If you are keeping the original machine, there is no reason to change control software if the PP and NCstudio worked fine.Īs i said I need to upgrade the PC to 64 bit and the old hardware will not work with 64 bit so i have no choice but to change it. You will just love the speed of boot and shutdown. I understand you are upgrading from XP to a new 64bit Windows 11. Help please to advise on the best easy to use, simple 2D basic 64bit CNC interface card and software. It seems Mach4 may work but need an additional interface card for some reason. I have tried Mach3 but find it VERY complicated with way too many choices to do the same simple task Which hardware PCB interface would i best use ? This continues to work perfectly BUT i am making a new 64 bit windows 11 PC and CNC I have been using Cut2D 1.5 for many years now with complete success saving as Cam Tech RMS (mm).cnc file which is then imported into Ncstudio Version 5.4.53.0 running on an old XP windows 32bit PC driving a XYZ-Tech CNC Router.
