Those are all wonderful solutions that you've presented, and I am grateful for your admission. My problem; however, is not that I don't have the ability to document the process, rather it is that I haven't been able to get the program to work on NT. Please believe me. I will write down every step that I do when I get it running. However, as of today, I've worked for nearly 4 months, and still have only the basest, most rudimentary knowledge for setting this up. Its not that your existing documentations isn't good, its that it only takes you to a certain point, after which it kind of leaves one in the air.
Is there anything that documents the entire process of installing this on NT? OR perhaps would it be possible to enter into a joint venture where someone would assist me in the setup, and I would document it and even tar up the mvend directory and send it to you in order to make an NT specific setup?
Whatever I can do to make this process easier, please tell me. I only want to figure this thing out, and have reached the end of my rope here.

hmm, may be you can attribute that to side effects GPL licenses have on
talented programmers....
And on the other hand, why not participating in writing a documentation
more suitable to your liking and needs and then donating it to the
MiniVend community ? We got the program with open source ... right ?
There is something called the documentation project. Join it at
minivend-docs@minivend.com.
