Guest cmm_519@yahoo.com Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 I have an Embroidery program that I have on an old old computer running Windows 98. My system crashed and I lost the ability to send an embroidery design from the computer to my sewing machine. The embroiery program is Wilcom ES 35, and the sewing machine is a Melco EMC-6. They communicate through a parallel port. I use this computer only for my embroidery program. Can anyone walk me through this? Also, how can I find what graphics card I have? Do graphics cards go bad? Appreciate any help I can get.

What happens when you try to send the design to the sewing machine? Do you get an error? What is the error? Yes, graphics cards go bad. Why do you ask?

Guest cmm_519@yahoo.com Posted December 3, 2007 Posted December 3, 2007 Re: Communication problem Thank you all for your quick response. I did run through the bios setup and still nothing. I do remember some of the settings that were in different windows as I would digitize, send design, ect.. I open "hardware setup" window, then choose "options" the card that is selected is "Multi Port" and it should be "Melnet". I change it too "melnet" and "reset" but as soon as I close this window it returns to "multi port". As for my computer crashing, my hard drive fell off my desk onto a hardwood floor. Thankfully I was able to retreive everything but my embroidery program. So I reloaded the program. When I send a design over I used to get the message "changing to Tajima" and then "sending design" as a result my sewing machine would run the needles to the starting position. I would program my design and color sequence and that was it. This is crazy, I have a nagging feeling this is so simple, but I just can't get it! Everything else runs great! Thank you all again for your response.
