 I've used Clustal X under Windows operating system, and never had any
kind of problem.

I'm not sure what's the problem you've been facing, but you're supposed to
"load" a simple .txt file with your sequences in Fasta format (or other
accepted format) into Clustal and perform the multiple alignment.

Nevertheless, check http://www-igbmc.u-strasbg.fr/BioInfo/ClustalX/Top.html

Hope that helps,
