Hi Ram,

We don't currently have any 64 bit installers for Windows. FiPy is not
really a problem, you can just download the the tar.gz, unpack and run
"python setup.py install" on any platform. However, Pysparse is an
issue, you'll have to compile it for your platform, which may or may
not be straightforward.  I found some very brief instructions for
building Pysparse here

   <http://matforge.org/fipy/browser/trunk/documentation/ADMINISTRATA.txt#L247>

but they are out of date. I would recommend installing pythonxy and
trying to build Pysparse using the compilers that it provides. I may
give this a go myself at some point, but can't say when right now.

Regarding Red Hat, we don't have rpms for FiPy and don't have any
plans for them. On any standard linux dist you can do "python setup.py
install" for both FiPy and Pysparse and it should work fine. You can
also try "pip install pysparse" on any platform, but most probably
won't work on Windows.

Cheers
