*Ok thanks. Almost there.* >From the https://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame/downloads site:
*- prebuilt-pygame1.9.2pre-msvcr100-win32.zip (1,903,169 bytes) **** * * *The external libraries required to build Pygame for Pythons 2.6 and up.* *Just unzip the prebuilt directory into the root Pygame working directory* *and run python config.py. Answer Y to use prebuilt.* 1) Instructions aren not clear or accurate: what is the 'root Pygame working directory? Do they mean the Python folder? 2) There is no *config.py* file. There is an *Include folder*, *Lib folder*, and *Setup_Win.in* file that doesn't do anything. Right clicking there is no 'install' option, its not a python file. Its a text file that looks like this: # Pygame 1.9.2 Windows dependency macros.
