Mega POV won't run for me - it says that it can't find the home path in the
registry, but I ran the installer and all went fine, POV runs ok, mega POV
doesn't

I install my programs as "installer" but run them as a basic user under W2k,
this is so I don't get over run with spyware

what should I do? I don't want to mess with the registry, I don't feel
confident doing that - Should I set the path in the environment variables
table?

I just wanted to ask, thanks for the help in advance

Read the instructions which tell you to install official POV-Ray 3.5 
before running MegaPOV.  If that does not change anything you should 
describe your problem more precisely.
