Thanks for your help! Gordon

After I set up the right value for PFPATH, PFROOT,
PFLD_LIBRARY_PATH, PFLD_LIBRARY{N32,64}_PATH
environmental variables manually in autoexec.bat file,
I can get rid of those "file loader not found" error.

I can't understand why the performer installation
can't set up these values.

Again, thanks!
