Perhaps post a few screen shots so we can see exactly what you are looking at on your screen.

Is it a licensed version of the software?

Are you able to cut your existing drawings, but you just can't draw any new ones? It so, then perhaps you can use another program to create your drawings and/or g-code, and then simply import them to your cnc table for cutting. Inkscape and Solid Edge are both free. Inkscape is great for the artistic pieces, and Solid Edge works well for creating mechanical parts. Sheetcam would work well for creating your g-code, assuming there is a post processor (or generic post processor) compatible with your table controller.

Where are you located?
