Yes, I got that, thanks. prebuilt-pygame1.9.2pre-msvcr100-win32.zip<https://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame/downloads/prebuilt-pygame1.9.2pre-msvcr100-win32.zip>
which unzips to: Include (folder) Lib (folder) Setup_Win.in which is NOT an installer, is NOT a python script. I HAVE THIS but there are no instructions for windows users as to what to do with them. I'm guessing (and should NOT have to) that I open the Include and Lib folders and put the contents into the python33\include and python33\lib folders. Why are there no windows instruictions? what is a Setup_Win.in file?!?
