Thanks for using 3DNA in Windows!
Which version of 3DNA are you referring to? If you are still using v1.5, it is definitely time to upgrade to v2.0 (http://http://3dna.rutgers.edu:8080/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=122). There are two 3DNA v2.0 binaries for Windows:
- Cygwin on Windows (see Cygwin (http://http://www.cygwin.com/) homepage for details)
- Native Windows binaries with MinGW (http://http://www.mingw.org/) (see MinGW homepage for details; you may also want to have MSYS installed)
I am not a regular Windows user, but I did not meet much problem to compile 3DNA on a Windows XP machine in the two environments. I guess they should run on Windows 7, if you install either Cygwin or MinGW/MSYS -- you are the first to report such a problem of installing 3DNA on Windows. Please have a try and report back how it goes.
Any comments from other Windows users?
