Hi
You can close this bug.

My system has a Dell OEM installation over which I have installed Windows 7
I had a disk problem and reinstalled Windows 7 ( wiping out the OEM
partition)

Whether the bug is related to the OEM installation or a corrupt disk bit ;
I don't know,
but the problem no longer exists.

I'll keep trying to install compilable Mixxx for windows on my machine as I
have invested
a considerable ti;e on this already.

Regards

bryan
