Hi, I am trying to install python 2.4.1 on a windows XP machine. Whether I choose to install 'for me' or 'for all users, and no matter where I select as the root directory, the installer always puts the python root in C:\, which is obviously a bit messy.
I am running this instalaltion as a slightly restricted non-administrative user, but I can create the C:\Python24 directory that I specified in the installation program and put files in it, so I do not think this can be the reason the installer fails. I have uninstalled python and deleted all references to it in the registry, then reinstalled, and experienced the same effect. Does anyone have any ideas what this might be?
