You need to add python.exe to your system's path. In Windows XP, you need right-click "My Computer", choose Properties, and then the Advanced tab. Click the Environment Variables button. Then go to the System Variables section and double-click the Path entry (you may have to scroll down to get to it). Notice that everything in this list is separated by semi-colons. You should be at the end of the list, so just put a semi-colon at the end and then type C:\Python24 Then it should work. You'll probably need to restart your command line window though, as it doesn't always take affect on open windows.
