I am facing problem in installing texnicenter.
I am using win xp. I have installed basic-miktex-2.6.2742, gsview, gs862w32 and lastly texnicenter_Beta7_50. When I open texnicenter, a configuration wizard page opened. It tells "Be sure, that you have already installed a tex-distribution........". I press next and it tells to "enter the full path of the didectory, where the executables(latex, tex etc) of your Tex-distribution are located".
I am unable to give the path.
Is Tex-distribution another software which is to be installed? If yes, from where I get it?
I am a layman is this matter. Please help me someone in details so that I can overcome my problem. Please....

At first you should get the current versions of all the software you need.
The path can differ in dependence on the language of your system.
Best regards

- GPL Ghostscript 8.64
- GSview 4.9
- MiKTeX 2.7
- TeXnicCenter 1.0 RC1

After installation (in this sequence) start TeXnicCenter (TXC) and give the following path for the MikTeX executables.
- GPL Ghostscript 8.64
- GSview 4.9
- MiKTeX 2.7
- TeXnicCenter 1.0 RC1
