I had a similar problem back in November in that the installer didn't work (on 64-bit windows 7). I don't remember the details. > ... > Since the install is totally broken for now, where do I go to manually > download and install the releases I want ? I looked under SourceForge > Files for mingw-64 but could not find the releases there. If you want posix threads and SEH exceptions, one possibility for the latest and greatest would be the compressed file: x86_64-5.1.0-release-posix-seh-rt_v4-rev0.7z downloadable from the sourceforge folder with url: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/Toolchains%20targetting%20Win64/Personal%20Builds/mingw-builds/5.1.0/threads-posix/seh/ I did the equivalent back in November for the 4.9.2 version. (Note, I haven't actually used the 5.1.0 version, but I assume that it works.) There are other possibilities (different builds, different configuration choices): see the sourceforge folder: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/Toolchains%20targetting%20Win64/Personal%20Builds/ You could follow, for example, the "mingw-builds" link there and pick your desired configuration / version as you navigate down to the downloadable file.
