Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Slow List Computer set up question.

Hi Bill,

One sure way to find out if a Win operating system will interfere with a
machine control program is to set it up working and then operate the disk
drive. You will soon see if there is a problem.

Programs that run in DOS should not be run in a Win window but from the DOS
prompt.
