Thank you Søren for your reply. I appreciate it. I found that a few of the additional packages seemed to install without a problem, whereas others didn't. I'm sure you are right, additional development is required for the Windows versions.
Thanks again for taking the time to reply.

My impression (I'm not a Windows developer) is that the packages included with the Windows installer are the only ones the currently build on Windows. So (without being the expert, so I might be wrong), I think you would need to do some actual debugging and development to get these packages to work under Windows.
