Should be on. For me: F:\>perl -V:usethreads usethreads='define'; You should get the same - on both machines. > WHy would I get an error on one install, not the other? I think there must be some slight difference in the scripts you're running. Does the script on the laptop "use Config;" ? What happens if you run (on the laptop): perl -MConfig -we "print $Config{usethreads}" For me: F:\>perl -MConfig -we "print $Config{usethreads}" define Does it make any difference if (in the script) you replace "$Config{usethreads}" with "$Config::Config{usethreads}".
