    Screen .Set Issues Help!!

    I recently had to upgrade my PC because the old one finaly died. I am having no luck at installing my screen set to my new PC. I custom designed it several years back and I really need the same setup, but It would take me half a year to learn all the Screen 4 stuff again. My old PC had a DB25 port and I went with a UC100 usb adapter on my new one. Its weird because I can open my Old Mach and Screen Set off of the Backup Drive, but it wont run the USB, but I cant load the old Screen on the new PC but I can run the UC100 When I try to load it half the buttons are not displayed. Anyone have any suggestions? I would like to upload the file and have somone look at it but I dont know how, I cant here I guess.One picture is what happens when I try to load it, also in Screen 4 it does the same thing, the other picture is what its supposed to be. I am lost.

    It looks like you are missing the folder with the bitmap images.
    You probably have a folder on your old PC in \Mach3\bitmaps\ that you need to copy. In Screen 4, you need to specify this folder for the bitmap images to show up.

    THANK YOU ! THANK YOU ! You saved me hours possibly days of scratching my head. Soon as I copied my old Bitmap file onto the new PC I tried Mach and it came up right, so I dont have to do any editing at all. All this time I thought all I had to copy was my Screen.Set. Thanks again
