http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/mswintex (just runsetuptex,bat in the 
path where it is)
http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/linuxtex (run setuptex and generate formats)

is the minimum that you need for context. For windows the trick is in using 
irun in the right way, i.e. either use a full path spec or something 
relative like ../../whatever (which is what i've done there); i didn't test 
it for "program files"
