See https://www.centroidcnc.com/dealersuppo ... ds/114.pdf

Your LCD panel settings in the motherboard BIOS probably got reset to 800x600 instead of the correct type of 640x480 panel.

First impression is that the LANGUAGE.MSG file, which contains all the on-screen text, has either been corrupted or deleted.

If you have a working floppy drive or network connection, and the technical ability to move files around, you can:
1) Unpack the attached ZIP file to get the LANGUAGE.MSG file
2) Copy it into your C:\CNC7 directory

I have a floppy drive and I think I could unpack the zip file and copy the MSG file to a disc ok … but I think copying it to the C:\CNC7 directory on my control is a bit beyond me. Is there any chance you could tell me how to do that in a kind of computers for dummy’s way ?
