10metreh,
Here is a script to take the GGNFS files and convert to msieve to do the post-processing.

Save the file and rename to nfs2ms.pl and then just run "perl nfs2ms.pl" and it will take it from there. I use it all the time.

Let me know how it works out.

Later,

Frank

PS. you need to edit the paths to point procrels. Just change the path to the same as your factlat script.....

i think i know what your problem was
was that matprune.exe is missing
for some reason all the build of ggnfs i have found dont include matprune.exe
i had this problem for ages
i built it myself a while back on a athlon 64 in 32bit windows
it works on my core 2 but it might not on your p4
if it dosent i will have a go at compiling for p4(and core 2 for myself)
i have attached it below
i was very close to the max forum upload limit

Incorrect. Matprune was there. Only factLat didn't use it when it said it should, it only did more sieving still. I terminated it when it started sieving up to q = 1.7m.

it should run after the matbuild program if matbuild found enough full relations
what was the output from matbuild

I have adjusted the script, but this error message appears:

"C:/Documents" is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

My path starts C:/Documents and Settings/, like a lot of people's. Perhaps the space is what confused the program?

factLat does not recognize the backward slash, so I used forward slashes. Perhaps using forward slashes here was the problem.

i am currently using paths of ""
this works if everything is in the same directory

It finds the directory this time, but it doesn't find procrels.

P.S. Who holds the record for the fastest first 200 posts?
