>From the tutorial:

"django-admin.py should be on your system path if you installed Django
via python setup.py."

This might be different for Windows - it might not be on the system path. Try:

python django-admin.py startproject mysite

If that doesn't work, use the full path to your python executable.

To make things easier later, add the directory containing the python
executable to your system path (Control Panel -> System -> Advanced ->
Environment Variables -> PATH).
