[MiKTeX] Mixtex 2.8 /Winedt 5.6/windows 7 problems

[John B. <jba...@ui...>]

I am installing winedt 5.6 and miktex 2.8 on a new win 7 x64 system. 
latexing and creating dvi and ghostscript files works.

clicking dvi2pdf 
bring up the Window Media center.

clicking ps2pdf gives the message:
gswin32c.exe -dBatch - dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -r600 -dComp" 
"alexcom.pdf" -c save pop -f alexcom.ps

The system cannot find the file specified.


The ps file is in the folder with the tex file.
Probably I need to alter the roots folder but how?


I installed using run as administrator - should this matter?

I have made the changes in the winedt menu suggested at
http://latex-my.blogspot.com/2009/12/miktex-28-and-winedt-56.html

They had no effect (replacing mo by mo-admin etc in the winedt menu.


Possibly this on Microsoft rather than the miktex/winedt interface. I have 
been unable to install a one year old Brother printer.
