[Eric] Installation trouble on Windows XP SP2

[Peter Bradley]

Hi,

I've successfully installed Eric on my Linux box (and very nice it is 
too), but I thought I'd like to install it on my Windows XP SP2 box as 
well.  Under Windows, I have installed the following, in this order:

*  Python 2.5
*  Qt 4.3.0 (Open Source), which installed MinGW as part of the 
installation process
*  PyQt 4.2
*  QScintilla (the compiled qscintilla2.dll is in C:\Qt\4.3.0 and 
C:\Qt\4.3.0\lib)
*  PySVN

I then downloaded Eric4-4.0.0 and extracted all the files.

When I click on install.py, though, I get the following error:

"This application has failed to start because mingwm10.dll was not 
found.  Re-installing the application may fix this problem"

After doing a search, I find that there are two instances of 
mingwm10.dll, located at: C:\MinGW\bin and also at: C:\Qt\4.3.0\bin

I'm not sure what application the error message is referring to, but if 
it means I should reinstall MinGW, does that mean that I should 
reinstall Qt?

Or are there any things I could do to make sure the installation script 
finds the dll?  I tried searching for mingw in the installation script, 
but without luck, so it must be picking up path data from somewhere else.

Thanks in advance,


Peter
