Thank you for response luigi. The story:

OS = Windows7 professional
I also have MikTeX installed which I use routinely for pdfLaTeX and
METAPOST from TeXworks

download 
context-setup-mswin.zip<http://minimals.contextgarden.net/setup/context-setup-mswin.zip>
from
the wiki
unzip to  C:\context
run from shell  C:\context>first-setup.bat --modules=all
add to PATH  C:\context\tex\texmf-mswin\bin\
run from shell  C:\context>first-setup.bat --keep

Then create tex file \starttext Hello world \stopptext  in different
location.

Navigate shell to that location and>context firstfile.tex

Result is  message
context: The Lua script is not registered.
context: Data: context

Aha! I tried moving firstfile.tex into C:\context and then run and it
works, but takes 11.62 seconds--not so good.

Each run? On my (over 5 years old) machine a Hello world takes less than a second.

However, I still get Lua script not registered when I try to run from other
file locations, which makes me think it is PATH problem that I will
continue to chase but if anything looks obvious please help.

Can you install the standalone distribution from the garden and see if that one works?

Hans
