Giovanni, right-click on My Computer, select Properties, go to the
Advanced tab, click the Environment Variables button near the bottom. In
the upper window you should have a variable called PATH and a variable
called RAYPATH. If you don't have them, or the values don't match the
following, create  or edit them accordingly...

PATH = .;C:\Program Files\MinGW-Radiance\bin;$PATH
RAYPATH = .;C:\Program Files\MinGW-Radiance\lib

At least that's how it's set up on mine using the MingW binaries from
http://www.bozzograo.net/radiance/
If your radiance bin or lib directories are located elsewhere on your C
drive, change accordingly.

installation!!
Thanks anyway!

The same command works here. Most probably something is wrong with your
Radiance installation, the most common origin of all trouble are PATH
and RAYPATH settings not pointing to the right directories. But here we
hit a point that I cannot really help you - I have zero experience with
Radiance on Windows, and usually it is guaranteed 100% more pain for
doing the same. Can you check your installation?

CU Lars.
