I currently get around the environmental variables problem by launching the appropriate "Build Environment for Fortran..." from the start menu. <graphical image removed due to nmusers email size limitation> Thanks...

Sadler; [email protected] Subject: RE: [NMusers] Intel Fortran Compiler v10 I have taken a quick look at Intel 10 and found the following: I can install and run NONMEM VI using CDSETUP6.bat with the default arguments for an Intel compiler, e.g. "cdsetup6 d c nm6i10 ifort y link" with no issues. Preliminary runs with NONMEM VI and PDx-Pop show no problems using the compiler with either program (identical results to previous version). The debugger requires Win XP or Vista (won't work with Win 2000 or lower). There was no obvious need/advantage to upgrade from the previous version (but I have not read the release notes yet). Installing Intel 10 presents the same problems as previous versions, you need to manually set your Intel Fortran environment variables to run NONMEM from the command line or from PDx-POP. (The Intel setup tried to add a LIB path to my PATH statement, so caution is advised). You may also need to remove variables set for previous versions of the compiler As with previous versions, the critical variables are PATH, LIB and INCLUDE. You can use the contents of the ifortvars.bat (found in C:\Program Files\Intel\Compiler\Fortran\10.0.025\IA32\Bin with a default install as a guide to the variable values that need to be set manually via Control Panel: SET IFORT_COMPILER10=C:\Program Files\Intel\Compiler\Fortran\10.0.025 SET INTEL_SHARED=C:\Program Files\Common Files\Intel\Shared Files SET INTEL_LICENSE_FILE=C:\Program Files\Common Files\Intel\Licenses SET PATH=%IFORT_COMPILER10%\Ia32\Bin;%INTEL_SHARED%\Ia32\Bin;%PATH% SET LIB=%IFORT_COMPILER10%\Ia32\Lib;%LIB% SET INCLUDE=%IFORT_COMPILER10%\Ia32\Include;%INCLUDE% William J.
