It shouldnt matter where you install it as long as you have the path and MINGW enviroment variable setup right
On my machine I installed MingW to C:\tools\mingw
For winxp and (Wink 2k i believe) right click my Computer select properties.
On the Advanced tab: Click the "Enviroment Variables" button.
Edit the System Variables:
Select "Path" and click edit. Add ;C:\Tools\Mingw\Bin to the value
Click OK
Click "New" to create a new variable
Variable Name=MINGW
Value = C:\Tools\MINGW
Click OK
Open a command prompt and type GCC
If you get message gcc: no input files you should be good to go.
You should run iconmaker in the directory you want that has the icon file. Its a quicky app so i didnt write any fancy path handling.
