Dear Andrea I use openDX on a Windows 2k System. It works with a few problems but it works. On my System there is a programm installed called X-Win32 (Starnet Comunications Corp.; V5.3; think its an x-server like cygwin) which is the base for openDX. Aside from problems like printing the image or the need of '/' in a file-path instead of '\' it works good.

If this person exists, please let us know how you did (with as much detail as you can)! If no one really knows how to run OpenDx on Windows, please let us know, so we stop loosing our time! Thank you very much!
