I'm not Skippy, but I do have my wife's Toshiba Satellite running Windows 7 Home Premium laying around. I figured that since I am fairly well set to duplicate all the information you gave in your problem, I would take a look. The bad news is that Python works great on it, so your problem needs more troubleshooting.. I have IDLE open right now with no issues. Python version: 3.1.1, Idle version: 3.1.1, Tk version: 8.5.

Have you tried launching Python from a command line in the directory that you installed it to perhaps? Maybe it would spit out an error message (or the interpreter might just work and maybe you have a Tk problem... who knows).

Hello Skippy,

In response to your message "Windows 7 : any problems installing or running Python ?" I found posted at (http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2009-August/1215524.html), I've got to say that I can't seem to get any version of Python to work on my computer. I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop running Windows 7 Home Premium with an AMD Turion II Dual-Core processor. I've tried all of the versions listed at http://python.org/download with no success. They install fine but when I try to run the IDLE (Python GUI), it does nothing at all.

Do you have any suggestions that might help me out here? I would really appreciate your input.

Thank you,

David M Covey Sr.
