mingwc10.dll and NT installation

[Marie-Edith Bissey]

Dear all,

We are trying to install Swarm 2.1.1 on our windows NT system, and are
running into problems:

- very often, the installation fails at 23%, while installing the
dynamic library: mingwc10.dll . In this case, the computer completely
freezes (and has to be reset).
This happens when we do the installation either as administrator or as
user, from a CD or the self-executable file downloaded from the
internet (yesterday).

- the bash terminal (when installation has been successful) recognises
Swarm commands when logged-in as "administrator" but not as user (and
we are quite reluctant to allow users to log in as administrators,
even if only to use Swarm.....)

Anyone has had these problems?
Thank you in advance for your help,

Yours,

Marie-Edith.
