Hi,  
I've been trying to install psychtoolbox on a Windows XP machine that  
runs Matlab 7.0.0, but I've been having problems. I downloaded SVN,  
rebooted the machine, and then tried to download psychtoolbox. After  
10 minutes or so the download fails, and I get the following error:  
  
  
Command "CHECKOUT" failed with error code 1:  
svn: Can't open file  
'C:\toolbox\Psychtoolbox\PsychContributed\.svn\tmp\text-base\nc.exe.svn-base':  
The system cannot find the file specified.  
  
  
Will retry now by use of alternative http protocol...  
The following alternative CHECKOUT command asks the Subversion client to  
download the Psychtoolbox:  
svn checkout  
[http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/osxptb/beta/Psychtoolbox/](http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/osxptb/beta/Psychtoolbox/)  
C:\toolbox\Psychtoolbox  
  
Sorry, the download command "CHECKOUT" failed with error code 1:  
svn: 'C:\toolbox\Psychtoolbox' is already a working copy for a  
different URL; run 'svn update' to complete it  
  
Any help would be much appreciated!  
  
  
Thanks!
