Hi, I'm trying to install PyCuda on WinXP 32 bit. I got to the point where I run
>python setup.py install Setup goes through a series of steps then eventually breaks when running build_ext with the following message: "error: Python was built with Visual Studio 2003; extensions must be built with a compiler that can generate compatible binaries. Visual Studio 2003 was not found on this system. If you have Cygwin installed you can try compiling with MinGW32, by passing "-c nigw32" to setup.py" My environment is: Visual Studio 2008 Express (C++) Python 2.5 Numpy 1.1.1, Scipy 0.7.0 Cuda 2.3 Boost 1.40, (Visual C++ 9.0, Multithread Debug, DLL variant) PyCuda 0.93 Followed the wiki installation notes where appropriate and seem to have siteconfig.py set-up properly. (Not extacly sure what was meant by "Finally, add a HOME environment variable in Windows: it doesn't matter what it is, so you can make it "123456" or your My Documents directory, etc. " ??) Any suggestions as to what my issue is? I find it surprising that V++2008 binaries would not be compatible with VC++2003 - but then I'm not a c++ programmer, and I have never used Boost before either. Any help appreciated - thank you.
