Yes, well... actually I just wanted to say that I had _checked_ if it were enabled, but somehow it got worded very poorly. Sorry! Anyway thanks again all, you're very helpful.

The only explanation that I might have is that either: - texmfstart.exe hasn't been updated for some time (cont-win.zip has to be fetched and the old exe file has to be replaced every now and then) - or you need at least ConTeXt beta version 2006-08-16 (so you really need to "ctxtools --update" or to unzip the latest beta over existing files) - which version of XeTeX do you use (I have 0.995, but I doubt that some major change has been made recently; contrary: making "diff" against the latest stable ConTeXt version resulted in a file of approximate size 660 kB) (I'm also working with the standalone distro on Windows.) But what exactly do you mean by "I enabled the shell-escape"? Isn't it enabled by default already (contrary to other distributions such as MikTeXt)?

I have reinstalled ConTeXt several times in the last few days and I think I have a pretty recent version of ConTeXt. I tried including miscellaneous PNG and JPG archives, and the only thing it would show when using XeTeX was a dummy box. When using TeX proper it would include the images correctly. Any ideas?

Hmmm ... most probably ImageMagic then. From rlxtools:
result = `identify -units PixelsPerCentimeter -format
\"x=%x,y=%y,w=%w,h=%h,b=%b\" #{filename}`.chomp.split(',')
Mojca
(From time to time it helps to delete the whole ConTeXt and then
istall it again. I have no idea what went wrong before, but at least
the document compiles now, although I don't get the images yet.)

It doesn't work here either. For PDF I get:
##

)
! Undefined control sequence.

and for PNG the following:

\XeTeXpicfile alone works OK.
I'm testing with the standalone ConTeXt on windows with:
This is XeTeX, Version 3.141592-2.2-0.995 (Web2C 7.5.5)

works ok here (or one can give texexec --xetex filename)
in the process you should see something:
