Hello, Imran
I'd like to call your attention to ROOT Web site "so-called"
search engine:
http://root.cern.ch/root/roottalk/AboutRootTalk.html
It is very useful to look up what other people asked / replied in past.
For example Windows env was heavily discussed recently there :

Hope this helps
Valeri
