That looks like one of the VERY experimental Sage Windows distributions (http://windows.sagemath.org/download.html). You should be looking at http://www.sagemath.org/download.html, the section on Windows, for instructions on the current Sage option for Windows. On the other hand, if you actually got 0.3.7RC3 to run, that would be very interesting news! - kcrisman > > The problem is with the keyboard mapping.
