Mach3 plasma no Z

Your table appears to have two X axis motors, one Y axis motor, and you simple mount the torch on the Y axis plate, i.e. no up/down control.

I generated gcode in Sheetcam using that post processor and it seemed to give out the right type of code for your design of table.
yes I'm still getting the compressed code so I'm thinking i may go the route of a new computer and pay for new software.

XP is fine. It sounds like a license issue to me. Even if you have the wrong post processor you should see more code that you are getting.

Your Mach license looks very suspicious as well. Mach licenses usually have your name. What name is your SheetCam license made out to? You can find it in Help->about.
sheet cam license is

That's a pirated license and it won't work any more.

Mach licenses can take up to 24 hours to arrive because I have to order them from Mach Support.
