That has been broken for a looonnng while and I know, I should've gotten around to working with Vyatcheslav on it [I found an extra problem while trying it on Win7], but that just hasn't happened. In the mean while, see if this helps: , especially the note at . I had a real fight with my 64-bit Win7 over the installation and then I just decided to give up and try again the next working day and shut down the computer. And lo and behold, when I booted it up the next work morning, everything worked - so I guess I didn't boot it often enough. Hmm.... I think I'm currently using an XP that's never had ConTeXt on it. And I have the admin priviledges... I might give it a try Sunday or Monday, if you can't get your installation sorted out before that!
