    I bet you have a 64-bit version of Perl. There's no mingw package for it, but you can install it yourself. See Re: Missing nmake - 64bit, Windows 7. (I'd try it without (d) first.) Or you could simply install a 32-bit version of Perl.
      jackpot ;-) thanks for the link!

      i´m using perl 5.12.3
      i can install modules via ppm and cpan.
      but..
      ppm refuses mingw => cant find any package..
      cpan> i /mingw/
      Module < Wx::build::Config::Win32_MinGW (MBARBON/Wx-0.27.tar.gz)
      Module < Wx::build::MakeMaker::Win32_MinGW (MBARBON/Wx-0.98.tar.gz)
      if i try to install these => dmake not ok
      .. :-(

      at How to isntall cpan modules theres a chapter "Installing a make utility and C compiler on 64-bit Windows".. i´m using x64 with win7 since a few days.. for that i think this part dont belong to me.. => i´m getting tired with it ;-) hehe.. so long..
