Re: [MiKTeX] MikTex on Windows XP

[Michiel de B. <Mic...@ne...>]

Hello Carlos,

Press the icon "This computer" with right mouse button, select "properties".
A new window appears. Select "Advanced" and click button "Environment 
variables".
Edit the environment variable "path", either for you alone (user 
variables) or for everyone (system variables). Add 
";c:\texmf\miktex\bin" at the right of the variable "path".

I hope this will do the job.
