<br>I am using Windows XP SP3.<br><br>I have a relatively long PATH already. Is your PATH very long on the system that you tried to reproduce this on? I wonder if that has anything to do with it (maybe Windows tells it that it cannot append to the PATH and so it replaces the PATH completely?).<br>

There are bug reports about that, but I cannot reproduce that bug here... What CMake installer were you running?

I chose to add cmake to my PATH (on Win XP 32) during the installation. After it finished I noticed that it completely overrode my PATH instead of appending to it. Is this a known bug?<br><br>Thanks,<br><font color="#888888">Mark<br>
