Hi Agostino,

I have not been paying any attention to this recently, but it seems to be affecting a few other people too.

As I raised this, I feel morally obliged to help you diagnose it :-)

I *think* the problem all us thinkpad users are having is that nearly all the OEM tools installed on the thinkpad are written in python (2.2).

My gut feeling is that there is a conflict somewhere between the OEM tools and the wubi installer, but I don't know how to track it down.

I suspect it is in the logger itself - the OEM config on this thinkpad explicitly defines a PYTHONPATH environment variable (%SystemDrive%\IBMTOOLS\utils\support;%SystemDrive%\IBMTOOLS\utils\logger)

If you tell me what to try, I'll give it a go in the next few days.

Cheers,

Pete
