[scilab-Users] makelib / systematic dll and linking problem when installing toolboxes

Thanks Samuel,
you're right: I forgot to mention that I use windowsXP

since I tried to install version5.0, this can't be the problem

so if I follow you, I should either install scilab-4.2.1 and use sip, or 
install ipd on scilab-5.2. That's okay with me...
but when I tried to use ATOMS - which I actually had already tried - 
then I get a window "Atoms error" with the message "installation failed!"

so I'm still not sure what I do wrong...
but thanks anyway!
