Glad to hear it's working

that plug also powers both heaters.

Figured it out, my girlfriend set the thing up and forgot to plug in the motor power cable to the back... (She told me she followed the instructions...)

Thanks ronsii for the quick response etc!

No, I get no response whatsoever in the log screen. Manual Control just keeps accumulating "commands" stating "X command waiting".

Does RH give you any errors in the log screen when you try to move the printhead?

Running windows 7 .NET 3.5 on laptop. Have nothing else plugged in except my Solidoodle 2. Followed all the instructions offered on the Solidoodle page, have a one of two COM ports selected (so it's not the 'virtual printer' problem) and I'm stumped because no matter what I do or how many hours I spend at this, nothing happens when I try to manually move the axis. The weird thing is, the fan and heat seem to work fine on the extruder.. I have re-installed the Repetier software / drivers 3 times while printer is disconnected, followed the instructions given exactly, and I got nothing. Starting to wish I had just gone with the replicator...
