Hi Valery, Daniel, Nick, We had a few reports (mainly you) indicating that the latest versions 3.03/08 or 3.03/09 are not correctly runnning under Windows. On the other hand, we also have reports from many people who do not see any problems with these versions. Curious! I would appreciate if more people running on Windows could report success or failure with these latest versions. If you have a failure, could you tell me if you have multiple versions of Root on your disk and - if you have a .rootrc file, which variables are you redefining - do you have #include statements like #include <iostream> in your rootlogon.C file if you run successfully, please send me just one line "it is ok" Thanks for your awaited cooperation.
