Topic: Can manually control SD3 but it won't print a model

Hi,
I got my SD3 today and I can't get it to print i either Simplify3D or Repetier. I can connect to the printer, manually drive it in all directions, extrude without any issues, but as soon as I try printing a model the head just freezes over the center of the plate at z 0 height.
I have tried two models: the SD spool holder and a calibration square.
I have installed the drivers twice.
Have checked that .NET 3.5 is enable on my Win8.1 64 bit computer
Disabled all power saving options.

Here is a printscreen: http://imgur.com/TebSU0S

Had a similar derp yesterday when upgrading slic3r.
Make sure you don't have any preset temps in your slic3r settings(first layer temp for instance)

This is a crowd funding thing that I'm running: http://www.gofundme.com/bvi140 It's for pretty selfish reasons tongue
