Hi, Howard,
I have no experience with Windows in particular, but installing libraries from
the Sci-stack (SciPy, NumPy) is usually a little bit of a hassle on every
platform. I can only highly recommend you looking at Anaconda, a Python
distribution for scientific computing — it’s free. 99% of the people who are
doing any kind of research with Python are using it since it is very convenient
to install those packages; also it is create for managing multiple virtual
environments (http://docs.continuum.io/anaconda/install
<http://docs.continuum.io/anaconda/install>)
Best,
Sebastian
