No experience here with Terrain Maker but a few utilities I had suddenly
stopped working when I switched to XP. Their authors updated them and they
work fine now. If Eric Jorgensen doesn't update Terrain Maker (he stopped
the development apparently), you may consider using another terrain utility,
such as Terragen, World Machine or Leveller. Terragen doesn't export to
POV-Ray directly but there's a plug-in to export TG terrains as BMP images
(http://homepages.ihug.co.nz/~jomeder/feo/index.html, untested).
