do I need to install both? I already installed aspell and the trace I am getting is:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (file-error "Searching for program" "no such file or directory" "ispell")
call-process("ispell" nil t nil "-vv")
apply(call-process ("ispell" nil t nil "-vv"))
ispell-call-process("ispell" nil t nil "-vv")
ispell-check-version()
byte-code("숁" [nil (ispell-check-version) ((error))] 3)
(defvar ispell-library-directory (byte-code "숁" [nil ... ...] 3) ("c:/Documents and Settings/emp1/My Documents/emacs-22.3/lisp/textmodes/ispell.elc" . 25279))
also I have in my .emacs
(setq flyspell-mode t)
(setq debug-on-error t)
(setq debug-on-signal t)

first.
If you already have them installed and they work from outside Emacs,
then set the variables debug-on-error and debug-on-signal to t and try
again. You should get a backtrace with more details about where the
error happened. If you cannot figure that out, post the backtrace
here.
