Some hints, that might be responsible for your problems:
1. You should install Squeak as an Administrator
2. Squeak itself should be installed in directory C:\Program Files\Squeak
(or something like that since each language names its directories different)
3. Can you see a directory C:\My Squeak?
Beyond this directory thers should be a directory like 'Your name', e.g.
C:\My Squeak\My name
There Squeak tries to store its 'projects'.
There you need to have all sufficient 'rights', for example 'write a file'.
Ask any person who can change the rights.
Additionally tell us which squeak version you have.
You can choose the language in the 'Navigateur' when you click on the 'earth'-Symbol.
You can see the version by pressing 'Esc' then clicking
on 'help' and then in the help menu on 'about this system'.
There you should have '3.8-05'.
Also the 'latest update:' information is important.
My current version is #531, there might be a more recent update.
An error message might be irrelevant.
What does it say?

Subject: [Squeakland] Frog Newbie, "hopping" for an answer...
Importance: High
Hello, i am an elementary school teacher from France and i d like to use
Squeak in my class (9years old) to teach part of the science and math
curriculum. I've been thrilled by the possibilities offered by Squeak
to build e toys...and i am still in the process of discovering that
tool myself.! But i have some basic problems you maybe could help me to
solve.
I downloaded a french translated version of the software and then the
full version (in english). The two versions are running on my XP based
PC. Here are my (big!) problems: i do not seem to be able to save my
projects... and i cannot download any existing project from the web to
explore from the Squeak menu (i always get an error message)!! Can
anyone help?
