I am running Emacs on three machines: Sun Solaris Unix 8.0, Windows 2000, & Windows Me. All machines use the same .emacs. Only the Windows Me machine doesn't seem to executing my .emacs. The other machines my customizations work OK.
I lost my hard drive on that machine (I did keep my data, but lost the registry) & had to re-install everything. I tried running addpm.exe again, but it just seemed to hang.
Any suggestions?

Did you set the %HOME% environment variable correctly?

Since you lost your registry, perhaps HOME is not set. Try visiting
~/.emacs and see if your file comes up.
