No big deal. You did not configure your environment properly. That can be 
corrected. May I suggest you grab a binary installer (*.exe | ask me | see 
wiki link above ) first and take a look where it installs the files.

If you know your way around computers you can figure it out by looking here
http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/gnumed/gnumed/gnumed/dists/Windows/gnumed_from_cvs.nsi

This file is the cooking recpie for building packages on MS Windows and 
therefore contains the locations where I put the files

http://salaam.homeunix.com/twiki/bin/view/Gnumed/BinaryPackages
is a description how to build pages. I have no information about your computer 
skills. Iy you feel this information does not help you please email again 
with info on what you are capable of so I can help you at an appropriate 
level

GNUmed creates a log file o every startup. Please provide us with this file.
Since I don't know how you started GNUmed exactly I don't know where on your 
system this file is located. Its name is something like gnumed.log
