I read the tutorial and put the init.el file at the root of my C drive in a folder called .xemacs. Then I tried adding C:\.xemacs to the PATH user AND system environment variables via the control panel/ system/advanced tab etc. Still no luck. Then I just tried putting the init.el file all over the place in any relevant folder hoping xemacs would load it. That didn't work either. Any ideas? I have honestly tried reading the faqs and searching google and got nowhere which is why I am asking here. Thanks for any help!
