I hope you mean 21.4.xx.  The current release of 21.4 is 21.4.20.  A
windows native setup kit can be found here:

The problem is probably that you haven't installed an ispell
executable.  What ispell did you install?  Can you run it from a DOS
cmd.exe?  If so, within XEmacs the directory that contains ispell.exe
must be added to the exec-path.  C-h v exec-path will give you help on
exec-path.

HTH,
