I've never had a problem installing cython under Windows. Although, cython does require a Python-compatible C compiler. This can be (the right version of) MSVC or (with a little fiddling) mingw32. I use mingw32 and, although it is not officially supported by CPython I think it is officially supported by Cython. I have had problems getting the right C-compiler on Windows. In any case, once you have a C compiler installed it should be straightforward to install cython: 1) Get the archive from here: http://cython.org/#download 2) Extract it 3) python setup.py install If you have pip or easy_install then it's as easy as running 'pip install cython' or 'easy_install cython' in your terminal.
