My advice is to not try to install or use wxMaxima until
Maxima itself is running.
Try installing Maxima 5.9.2 using the Windows installer
which is maxima-5.9.2.exe at
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=4933
The Windows installer installs a GUI and a command line program.
The first time you start the GUI, if the Windows security manager
asks about allowing Tk to run, say yes.
If the GUI won't run, try the command line program.
I'm sorry that I can't be very helpful, but I can't really tell
what is the problem. Maybe you can post additional information.
best,
Robert Dodier
