`baposter.cls not found'

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Placed baposter.cls in MiKTex 2.9/tex/latex/baposter/base. 
2. Used pdflatex and latex to build in Texmaker and Texworks.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Both programs and all build options come up with `baposter.cls' not found. Btw, 
have installed beamer using the same method (simply placing the cls in 
beamer/base) and that works fine. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
MiKTex 2.9. Windows 7 (64).

Please provide any additional information below.

That is a general latex installation problem. I can not help you with that. 
Please ask at the appropriate latex support group. 

As a quick fix, just copy baposter.cls into the directory in question. That 
might generally be a good idea, because you are sure to have the right version, 
even if you update your main tree.

I tried to open my poster this in that window that baposter.cls is when i 
double click on it

I really have no familiarity with this program too well, so any help will be 
appreciated

i also tried to unzip the file in texmaker which I don't even know means, but i 
can't find texmaker in my computer, my folder, etc.

also, I tried to find baposter.cls in the directory of texmaker in latex and 
couldn't find it...is that the probelm

Thank you.
