That looks like a current problem we are debugging on 32-bit nightly builds.
The fastest way to get running is to use the latest 0.96 stable release on
32-bit windows which works just fine, or...
Start from 0.96 binary and update to the latest successful 32-bit nightly
build from commit e544c0bc4adc4a44e461fd5a3e8aaeaf05d5d118, something like:
$ download factor 0.96 binary release
$ git checkout factor.git
$ cd factor.git
$ git checkout e544c0bc4adc4a44e461fd5a3e8aaeaf05d5d118
$ cp ../factor-0.96/factor* .
$ ./factor.exe
IN: scratchpad USE: bootstrap.image make-my-image
$ ./factor.exe -i=boot.windows-x86.32.image
That should give you an up-to-date as of
e544c0bc4adc4a44e461fd5a3e8aaeaf05d5d118.
We are working on fixing the nightly builds on Windows and also on 32-bit
and getting close to a 0.97 release.
