[Eric] Problems running Eric on WinXP

Hello, I've recently tried to use Eric, installed from the binary package
PyQt-Py2.5-gpl-4.3.3-2.exe found on the Riverbank QT pages.

Installation was fine, QT was installed, MingGW was also download and
installed with no problems.

Starting the IDE gives me this error however:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "eric4.pyw", line 6, in <module>
    from eric4 import main
  File "E:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\eric4\eric4.py
    from Refactoring.Refactoring import BRM_VERSION_
  File "E:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\eric4\Refactor
    import ThirdParty.brm.bike as bike
  File "E:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\eric4\ThirdPar
    from bikefacade import init, NotAPythonModuleOrP
  File "E:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\eric4\ThirdPar
    from bike.parsing.pathutils import getRootDirect
ImportError: No module named bike.parsing.pathutils


Right now I'm using:
Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Apr 18 2007, 08:51:08) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)]
on win32
Windows XP SP2

If there are any ideas how to fix this I'm all ears. The bicycle package
seems to be there, but I think the paths are screwed up somehow. I tried to
dig through the code, but my best guess is that the path isn't working in
some way for Windows. I'm guessing it could be using relative paths?

I'd like to try this on my desktop machine, as it installs just fine under
Ubuntu on my laptop with no issues.

Thanks,
Justin
