the message means what it says.

Python NET SDK returns over 200,000 hits, and another 1660 hits in google
groups; I didn't look at them all, but most of the hits on the first few pages
are
related to this issue.
(googling for relevant parts of the exact error message can also be helpful...)

to build extensions to Python, you need to use a compiler compatible with
the compiler used to build the Python core. as of Python 2.4, the core team
has switched from MSVC 6.0 to MSVC 7.1 (aka Visual Studio .NET 2003).
if you don't have the commercial version, you can use the free Microsoft Visual
C++ Toolkit:
