Hi Rob,

Thanks for your reply.

I have removed and re-installed MinGW and then overwrote the C:/Perl/site/lib/auto/MinGW files with those in the binutils tar file. Unfortunately, this gave me the same result.

I am running PERL v5.10.1 build 1007 [291969] provided by ActiveState

I do have dmake.exe in those two locations, here are the file properties of it in those locations.:

Directory of C:\Perl\site\bin
18/03/2010  15:01            24,576 dmake.exe

Directory of C:\Perl\site\lib\auto\dmake
18/03/2010  15:00           155,648 dmake.exe

[download]

Is there anything else you can suggest I look at please?

Thanks, Richard.
