MX3 mu1 Vista problem??

I am having some issues that are new to me regarding Mastercam. I bought a new laptop and us it at home, it has vista 32 bit on it. I have another box that I use at work, and it has XP pro on it. I have trouble opening parasolids at home for some reason, so I thought I would just take some native mastercam files home to work on. When I work on them at home and email them back to work, they wont open properly. There is a laundry list of errors it gives, but most are parasolid errors, and one that says there is a missing op file. Anyone ever see anything like this, I have a feeling it might be a bad install on the laptop, but am not sure. Thanks in advance

I work back and forth between XP and Vista, with nary an issue.

 

When you email them, do you zip them up?

 

I prefer to zip files if I have to email it cuts down on corruption issues.

In this case it wasnt zipped, but I will remember that for the future. I will look into the chaining tolerances gcode, but it seems to be more of a solids problem. Once I opened the file here at work, there were some solids left in the file, but others were gone or corrupt. All of my op groups were there as I had named them, but all toolpaths in them were gone. Its a weird one for sure. Thanks for the help so far keep em coming guys
