Z Axis Motor Moving very slowly

in Motor Control
Hi I am upgrading a CubePro Duo to Ramps 1.4, and i have used the new version of the complier to create the Firmware, but the Z axis is moving way to slowly, i have tried to change the steps per mm but this has no effect, is it because i have the micro stepping jumpers installed, i have an older version of firmware from a german riprap x400 when i install that and move the z axis it moves at a better speed, and in this firmware it has a line of code to define the micro stepping setting, but in the new firmware compiler it does not have this setting.

Can someone give me a hint as to how i fix this.

    You always needed to set steps correctly. Check in eeprom settings what your setting is and modify there. Only changing in configuration.h will not work.

    Ignore this dum question, if i had of just opened the software and looked i would have got the answer, which his yes the settings can be changed.
    Can i change the eprom setting using the Arduino programming software.

    Or do i tell it to ignore eprom settings on startup?
    Because the X400 firmware eprom settings match the new version i created?

    You can copy defaults to eeprom with
    M502
    M500

    or disable eeprom at all if you compile with EEPROM_MODE 0, but that is normally a bad idea since you then need to upload for every tiny adjustment.
