Re: gvim hangs when _vimrc loaded and with syntax on

[Greg Dunn]

The symptoms are that when I load _vimrc into a buffer, and _vimrc
contains

  syntax on

Does this thread help:

Essentially, vim is finding an incompatible tcl84.dll in your path
(probably from cygwin, if you have that installed).  Assuming you
don't need tcl support, putting an empty file named tcl84.dll earlier
in the path should fix things up.
