I am working on a superdrive microkinetics to mach3 and have run into some trouble... I rewired the parallel port to more of a standard wiring the on off for the plasma cutter works great but I can not get the stepper motors to work ..they just hum and heat up ... I have tried a on board 5v power and USB cable 5v from the computer with no luck ... anyone gotten this to work? If so how?

Got it working .... sorry for the post before

You do need to rewire the plug on the back of the unit and it needs 5 volt signal to the driver boards from the computer .. I used a USB plug to steal the power...
