If you add  warn "got here"; after all the use statement, but before your program runs, does it get printed?

    yes it gets printed but after that it crashes 
    use Win32::GUI();
warn "got here";
$main = Win32::GUI::Window->new(-width  => 100,-height => 100,);
$main->AddLabel(-text => "Hello, world");
$main->Show();

      well, keep moving it until you find the line it crashes at :)

      Also, did you successfully run the Win32::GUI test suite?
