I'm in the process of providing a texmf tree for tetex.  Also, Jerome
is preparing a new tetex executables package.  So there is hope.

That's strange.  Are you sure all necessary libraries are there?

You could try pointing your setup.exe to

    http://lilypond.org/gnu-windows/testing

or just run:

    http://lilypond.org/gnu-windows/testing/setup.exe

and install tetex-beta and at least one of texmf-tiny or texmf-base.
You don't have to install lilypond, of course.

This is all experimental, but there have been some success reports.

Maybe better if you'd uninstall tetex-beta first.  Please let us know
if it works.

Greetings,
Jan.
