Hi,

Can you check if you have Tcl/Tk installed correctly? You should be able to run a wish shell from
the start menu (probably something like start->all programs->tcl->wish)? If you run this, you
should get two windows -- the Tk window, and a wish shell.

Also, you could check that the Tcl/Tk dlls are in the right place (they should be anyway if you are
able to run wish) -- they are normally installed in C:\Program Files\Tcl\bin

I also assume that you have enough disk space to install everything?

Cheers,

Kish
