    NUnit won't be in the GAC. On my machine it is here

    C:Program FilesNUnit V2.1bin

    Add you reference to that directory.

    Their web site should document this, as well as how to run NUnit GUI.

    Its not in the GAC on my machine. I always reference it from program files.

    Very very weird then :-)

    I have since moved to referencing it directly as that solves this issue. Unfortauntely, more issues have arisen that i don't know how to work around.
