<P><FONT SIZE=2>Hi all,<BR>
<BR>
I have downloaded install-tl-20111019.zip, unzipped it, and am running the install-tl.bat file on a windows x64 machine with XP. The GUI starts, then gets stuck at step 1-2/5, i.e. loading the data repository. Then, it does absolutely nothing.<BR>
<BR>
I am puzzled, because in 2010 I managed to successfully install the texlive 2010 version on another identical machine. Using the same instructions.<BR>
<BR>
Please help urgently!! (The other machine has died, and I need to get texlive running on this machine, several papers pending).<BR>
<BR>
thanks and regards,<BR>
