Colleagues I am installing NONMEM 7 for a colleague on a Windows 7 (64-bit) machine. ifort is installed -- however, during the installation I encountered an error message:
> Intel(R) Visual Fortran Compiler Professional Edition for Windows* > modification can continue, but take note: > The following components can not be installed: - Intel(R) Visual Fortran > Compiler for applications running on IA-64 Modification can continue; > however, these components will not be installed because they require that a > supported Microsoft* development tools be installed. Refer to the Release > Notes for a list of the required Microsoft* development tools. I continued the installation successfully and the command: ifort yields the expected response: command line error: no files specified I then attempted a generic installation: SETUP7 d: C:\nm7.10 ifort y link reg norec i unzip.exe The installation fails with the following message: > ===Checking compiler > start compile/link > ifort: error #10037: could not find 'link' > end compile/link > Could not compile util\test.f90 > === > > Compiler ifort and/or install program cannot be run > Installation Aborted The entire dialog is shown below. Is the NONMEM installer trying to do a 64-bit installation but only 32-bit Fortran is available? Any ideas?
