That's not the right location.  Did you get and run the pywin32
installer?  What command did you use to call "setup.py"?  In a properly
installed system, win32com will live in
\Python27\lib\site-packages\win32com.

Are you running a 32-bit system or a 64-bit system?  Did you install
32-bit Python or 64-bit Python?
