I *strongly* suggest that you update to 2.7.9.

I installed ImageMagick from imagemagick.org
<http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php#windows>

Then installed PythonMagick with pip from
http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pythonmagick

When I have used that site (most recently last July), I have directly downloaded and unzipped files. I see that nearly all .zips have
since been replaced with .whl wheels.

When I import PythonMagick it says:

Traceback (most recent call last):

   File "magic.py", line 2, in <module>

     import PythonMagick

   File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\PythonMagick\__init__.py", line
1, in <module>

     from . import _PythonMagick

ImportError: DLL load failed: The application has failed to start
because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the
application event log or use the command-line sxstrace.exe tool for more
detail.

With 64 bit python, you must use 64 bit binaries. If so, search "side-by-side configuration is incorrect" (Google, etc).

Any clues on where do look?

I see 'cgohlke', who I presume is the C. Gohlke who made the PythonMagick binary, has already given you his best guess.
