BMX 1.33 and Win7 RC (64 Bit) issues?!

Community Forums/General Help/BMX 1.33 and Win7 RC (64 Bit) issues?!

Hello again.

I can't get BMX running under Win7 properly.

1.
The IDE tells me to recompile the docs each time I launch it.

The docs are build but somehow not saved.

2.
What env variables do I need to set up mingw 5.14 correctly?
MINGW=c:\mingw and C:\MinGW\bin = Path, anything else? Think I have missed something... :(

3.
Are there any other issues using a 64 Bit OS I should be aware of?

Thanks
Grisu

Did you install it under the program files folder?
If so, you may run into UAC issues.

There's a couple fo workarounds, ranging from disabling UAC, installing it somewhere different (e.g. c:\blitzmax ) or changing the folder permissions to allow modifications.

I did install it under: c:\Program Files (x86)
UAC is disabled!

Building modules works fine. Compiling works fine.

It's just that I can't use the docs and there're no highlighted keywords in the source code.

Edit: Installed it to c:\ full write access. But stiil the ide does not read the docs that where created.

Ok, after trying everything else out I have installed bmx on a separate drive. Everything seems to work... thanks!
