Hi Folks,

I've been trying to run the 3.7 beta on my machine, but I am yet to be
successful.

This is how I tried to install
1> Install 3.6
2> Download 3.7 beta
3> Overwrite 3.6 \bin files with 3.7 beta

Basically, when I double click pvengine.exe, nothing happens!! It does not say
any error message too.

I used the straceNtX to trace what is happening.
This is what I see

...... The same thing a million times ....

Povray 3.6.1.a, 3.6.1.c etc work without any problems !!!
The CPUs are dual Athlon MP 2800+  and OS = Windows XP

Am I doing something wrong somewhere or does Povray need dotnet runtime or
something ??
