I do not really want to bash Windows installations, but the sensible thing to do would be to bite the bullet and use Linux (without losing your Windows, of course): Option 1: Install Virtualbox on your windows, and download a virtualbox Bio image, ready to use. Option2: Download Bio-Linux DVD, and boot from USBstick or DVD. There everything "just works" (albeit a bit old now, as the image is 2 years old by now. It still `works` out of the box) (you can combine those, but installing your own Linux in virtualbox might be a bit more challenging, I guess you just want it working, and not fiddle with Linux...) ps: I run Debian, and the cpan command to install the libraries worked.

I would next run the failing tests one at a time to see why they are failing. Since the test scripts appear to be crashing early (judging by how many tests are being planned versus being run), my guess is that there's another module not installed or misconfigured. Test them one by one by changing into the installation folder and running: `prove -lrv t\Blat.t` [download] ... etc. But I do think installing a Bioperl image on a linux VM sounds very sensible. The way forward always starts with a minimal test.	[reply] [d/l]
