I have had all sorts of problems just getting so far with installation as to
get a work environment. Something like Emac doesn't even seem to install - I
click the .exe and it just gives me a sort of a help file.... Am totally

I assume you are on some sort of Windows, but details might be useful.

What do you mean by "Emac doesn't even seem to install"?
What do you mean by "a sort of help file"?

I recommend getting the precompiled emacs + auctex bundle from

http://www.gnu.org/software/auctex/download-for-windows.html

You also need a working TeX installation for instance, MikTex,
