I will reproduce the problem today or tomorrow. I hadn't
given the problem much thought as the error messages I saw led me
to believe it was designed for a different version (more expensive :-))
of Windows.
Here's what I remember:
I downloaded and attempted to install the package from my unlimited
account before finding the instructions. I installed the package by
double clicking on it (not the suggested msiexec /i command line).
After fiddling around with it I discovered that the collector wasn't
running. I found the instructions. I started a command prompt window.
I cded to \Glider\scripts. I ran .\postinst.bat. It complained several
times about not being able to find or attach to a service or services.
I apologise for the skimpiness of the information, but I didn't know
to expect it to work in the Windows 7 Home environment.

It should work on any modern version of Windows - we run it here on
Windows server 2003 and 2008, desktops with XP, Vista & Windows 7.
Can you give more details on the "something and the something else"?
(did you run it from the scripts directory? Did the "call setup.bat"
line failed? (try cd into the scripts directory before running it)
cheers.
