What where the troubles that you had, how did you succeed at last?  If
there's anything you could add to

    http://lilypond.org/wiki/?TroubleshootingWindows

that would be helpful for other Windows users, please do so.

Yes,

Comment-out the line that imports resource, like this:

    /usr/lilypond-1.4.8/bin/ly2dvi.py:
    ...
    # import resource

Btw, there's a special page in the wiki for windows specific problems:

    http://lilypond.org/wiki/?TroubleshootingWindows

Try visiting that page if you have other problems.

Oh and please just send plain text email to this list next time; do
not use html.

Thanks,
Jan.
