I have been in discussion with Christian for several weeks about this 
problem but I do not use MikTeX and I cannot reproduce it, so I encouraged 
him to post it to the list.  

There is a bit of a complication for people with pmx 1.38 or earlier:
Christian is using a beta of pmx1.42 in which I have redefined \PMXpt as 
follows:

\def\PMXpt#1#2#3{\ifodd\n@i\else\raise\internote\fi%
\hbox{\raise#1\internote\hbox{\kern#2\qn@width\musixchar#3\kernm#2\qn@widt
h}}%
\global\let\C@Point\C@Psave}%

If you have the pmx.tex that came with version 1.38 or earlier, you'll 
need to replace the existing definition of \PMXpt with the above.  
Either temporarily make the replacement in place in pmx.tex, or if you 
do it elsewhere, be sure to surround the new definition with 
\makeatletter...\makeatother.

Sorry about the confusion.  (The redefinition was needed to enable 
double dots to be moved.)
