After I cloned roots theme to my local, I run “npm install”. It has some issues on bower install part. Throw error message of “ENORESRARGET No tag found that was able to satify 1.4.2”. I did search about it, and it seemed related to bower. I cleaned cache, updated bower and still run into the same problem.
Anyone has the similar issue?

Tried those suggestion, including “rm bower.json bower init”. It worked with a fresh bower.json. But once I added dependency back to the fresh one, it broke again. Here is the full error msg:

Which dependencies are you adding?
The same set from source bower.json -
“dependencies”: {
“modernizr”: “2.8.2”,
“jquery”: “1.11.1”,
“bootstrap”: “3.2.0”,
“respond”: “1.4.2”
}
Try running npm -g upgrade anywhere, then npm upgrade inside your theme root.
Tried, with no luck. 
Could this be something to do my Win7 dev envorinment?
I tried a fresh install of Composer and Roots in a Mac. It seems bower install is fine. No errors at all. I guess the issue in PC was probably related to permission on access certain files.
Anyone use PC for Roots theme development?
Same here. Windows 7

I also have this issue on Win7 dev environment. I reverted to an older version of Roots.
