Sorry to hear you got a BSoD while running the installer. This is not a usual occurrence, and is not generally happening to other users (on Windows of course). It's impossible to say what's causing this BSoD. With modern versions of Windows, this is usually because of a hardware fault or a bad driver. There's really nothing Python developers can do about this. This isn't a bug in the installer. Rather the installer is triggering something on your Windows system that isn't quite right. You did not state where you got the installer from, or the operating system version and hardware you were installing on. Getting the official installer from python.org is always recommended. Have you tried it on other machines? When you say you tried 3.6.2 and it "did not work," what do you mean by that? Please describe the problem, and include copy and pasted error messages (not screenshots) from the command prompt. Glad you enjoy Python. Yes, it is a great language. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
