Hi, You need to install GTK+ first, then install PyGTK. If you haven't yet installed GTK+, then I'd suggest using GTK+ 2.6.10-rc1 from this page: http://gladewin32.sourceforge.net/modules/wfdownloads/viewcat.php?cid=8
This will also install the Glade interface builder, which you will find useful. Make sure that if you install GTK+ 2.6 that you install the corresponding PyGTK 2.6 and make sure you select the correct one for the version of Python you are using. http://www.pcpm.ucl.ac.be/~gustin/win32_ports/binaries/pygtk-2.6.3-1.win32-py2.4.exe After installing GTK+, check that the demo program in the start menu is working correctly, and check that you can run Glade. Then it's probably a good idea to try to run a 'hello world' example program with PyGTK, just to check that everything's working as expected. Let us know if you still have problems.
