[Mono-list] Newb at Mono

[scarypajamas]

This is my first time trying out mono and I'm running into some problems. 
I'm developing on Windows Vista 64bit if it makes any difference.

OK, so I clicked the "Mono for Windows, Gtk#, and XSP" under the
downloads->window link and installed mono to my C:\ drive using all the
default options.

Then, I attempted to run one of the mono applications from the
Mono-2.6.1->samples->gtk-sharp-2.0 folder but, unfortunately, none of the
samples work.

When I start any of the applications, for example "menu.exe," I get a run
time error box.

The caption says: "menu.exe - Command Language Runtime Debugging Services"
The message says: "Application has generated an exception that could not be
handled."  Then it gives me my process and thread id.

I tried running the application from the command line and got a more verbose
error message:

C:\Mono-2.6.1\samples\gtk-sharp-2.0>menu

Unhandled Exception: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: File or assembly name

sharp, or one of its dependencies, was not found.

I'm running a clean install of mono with all default settings.  Does anyone
have any idea why it isn't working for me?
