I have these in \emacs\lisp but they can go in any subdirectory in 
load-path, most appropriately in \emacs\site-lisp if you want to keep 
...\lisp pristine.

Maybe your installation is hosed. runemacs.exe is at least one 
subdirectory lower than it has to be since there is a stutter on 
.../emacs-22.2/emacs-22.2...
Did you run addpm.exe? Is Emacs listed as a removable program in Control 
Panel Add Remove Programs? Does Control-h v load-path include the subdir 
where you put Lennart's files? If you have to reinstall Emacs I would 
recommend you get the 22.3 binararies and put them in C:/emacs (that is, 
unzip it directly into the root C:\ and afterwards change the name of 
emacs-22.3 to emacs. If you want to do anything from command window 
(used to be dos shell) then it's better not to have everything deeply 
buried in the file hierarchy. Also, it's better for windows not to know 
any more about Emacs than it needs to. Then when you are ready to 
upgrade to 23.1 you can temporarily change "emacs" to whatever the top 
level unzip target is and install the new Emacs on top of the old one.
