Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
It is possible that the python.org installer didn't overwrite the "python24.dll" in the system directory (C:\WINDOWS\system32). Try doing this: - manually delete C:\WINDOWS\system32\python24.dll - run the "repair" functionality of the python.org installer (you can either do this from "Start | Settings | Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs" or by just running the .msi file again Then try running python again.
