Dear Pd fellows and hardworkers

I have been using Pd 0.39 extended test 4 in windows. were I am using Gem and Comport to get information form a web cam and translate that into the microcontroller. Everything looks fine, until it crashes (after 10 minutes).
well that happens because is a test version!!!
Now I tried to install Pd 0.39 (the latest stable version and not extended) with Gem. but with my surprise. Gem doesnt work when i installed ( after following this tutorial: http://gem.iem.at/download/GEM.README) and my patch contains split objects, which are not recognize, so they wont work either.
Could you tell me what is going on??
Why the split object wont work, does it need a special librery such as iemlib????
thank you guys
