3M 665, releases with alcohol.

Thanks Dr. Evil To much info! but GOOD info. I think I'll go bootcamp to start. I hear I need to create a partition for bootcamp, si? Also have Snow Leopard, not installed. Install it?

Thanks Jay. For any nubies, (or not), can you post detailed info on how to go about installing MCAMX, and Solidworks if ya know, on a Mac? Oh, and which OS are you using on the Mac? Thanks! Jeff

Only CB2 Main, CB6 User and CB3 Coolant in the cabinet. No CB5 TSC. Haas says that "Tool Clamp Fault 134, Circuit Breaker CB4" means "draw bar limit switch" problem. O . . . K . . . Got into the spindle head, manually cycled the draw bar solenoid. Sticky at first, then fine. Apparently no CB4.

Doesn't appear to be in the electrical cabinet. Anyone know where it is located? Thanks!

Durrr... not in this thread... This link: http://www.mmsonline.com/articles/0399sup.html which you linked to, James, from Columbo's link above. Thanks!

That link is dead. Anyone have another link, Word doc or somethin?

Actually 2x6M L2 cashe. Why only 2 for a quad core? So 2 cores share one cashe? from http://www.xbitlabs.com " . . . This feature will increase performance for content creation, imaging, video and high-performance computing. Radix 16 technique, according to Intel, roughly doubles the divider speed over previous generations for computations used in nearly all applications. . . ." and maybe something for the potentially multi-core future. " . . . as well as added some features to dynamic acceleration technology, which is supposed to boost single-threaded applications’ performance on multi-core chips."

JDowe http://www.dell.com/ (on the right) Small & Medium Business (on the left) Refurbished (on the left "Select a product line" down arrow) Dell Precision These are not all stripped down. The whole range from basic to many bells and whistles. Previously ordered new, Certified Refurbished and Scratch & Dent. I think all with full warranty. Very good prices, you can go to Dell's regular site and spec exactly or close to what is offered and see the savings.

Numerics keypad? I think it does not.

On Solidworks Graphics and Hardware page the NVidia GeForce 7600 is listed as "Tested (Not Recommended)" Ya'll want a "Certified (Recommended)" card

Spaceball? Spacepilot? John, don't you prefer the Pilot? Insight Network Equipment and PC has em on ebay for about half price...

128GB of Ram 1TB Disk space. How much does that cost? @ about $500/4G, $16K 1TB disk, low end (which you probably don't want) <$1K

Get out the margarita blender and make an ice water "slurpie", pre-cool part and fixture; will reduce or eliminate any expansion issues.

Carmen Do you have a spreedsheet with the numbers? Thanks

Thanks John. I always thought with your depth of knowledge you should work for CNC... I mean get paid by CNC.

anyone know where I can get this? Thanks

Ya think it's not related to MC9 bein' a DOS app., and havin' control over memory; but now X is windoz, and gave up control of memory to windoz?

Yep. a fishnet bag.

Prosin Could you offer up that file and info as a reference for others to test with???

Dell Outlet New, returned New, slightly used New, scratch and dent New, slightly used, scratch and dent Refurbished http://www.dell.com/ Small Business (right, middle) Dell Outlet (left, middle) View Refurbished Inventory (right, bottom) Dell Monitors bottom o page Dell Refurbished UltraSharp 2407WFP 24-inch Widescreen Flat Panel LCD Monitor $549 also 19" and 20"s |edit| my bad. didn't see Scooch reactivated this thread. Scooch, I think you just left click on the light gray vertical bar at the left side of each menu, then drag and drop it to the other screen. Then, if ya still wanna move it around, ya gotta grab it by the blue title bar. You can also move it back to auto-dock with other menus by drag and drop right next to existing menus in MX.

Just curious. What computer hardware you runnin'?

I have X MR2 and X2 Demo. My Mastercam X Control Panel Utility say "X2" and when I try to change something it says "error opening registry". So if I REALLY wanna change something, I have to get rid of X2 demo???

"What does it mean to be Vista capable? The original X2 can't run on it?" Been covered, do a search. It runs. Pista does not support OpenGL graphics, emulates it, so there's a substantial performance hit. Graphics sumpin like 80% slower for Solidworks, probably about the same for X2. I think any OpenGL app will run on Pista, but much slower. The Pista compatable apps use the (directx?) graphics standard of Pista, and are much faster, graphics wise.
