    You can do it during a fresh XP install, or you'll need additional software to keep your existing XP installation and add a partition.

    Available Now?

    Hi all,

    I'd like to start a controller project now and use CNCpro. Is there a place I can get it (and maybe the source) now?

    Corrie,

    I may have missed something, but if you are planning on a DOS partition to run the controller, DOS can only go to 2.1g partition sizes. I'm not sure if windoz 98 qualifies as real DOS, even if you don't start the GUI?

    Can someone with more knowledge about what CNCpro needs / likes, please comment?

    John
