You could try one of the "monolithic" octaveforge installers from
sourceforge:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2888&package_id=29785
It's a recent octave version packaged with additional functions.
I'm using 2.9.13 on XP. Don't know how it works with older OS versions.
But it might be worth a shot.

All,
The sourceforge seems to indicate that the latest version is for all
versions of Windows, but when the installer is run it aborts because
the Windows OS in ME. Where can I find a version that is known to run
under these versions of Windows?
NOTE: I don't need a lot of grief about the OS - it is what I have to
use because there are no funds for new computers and Linux is not an
answer in this case.
Thanks,
Dave
