Make sure you have the correct architecture. The builds from PythonWare are 32-bit. Christoph Gohlke has 64-bit builds here: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pil As far as the registry goes, installing for everyone uses HKLM (local machine), else an installation uses HKCU (current user). The installed versions are in subkeys of [HKLM|HKCU]\Software\Python\PythonCore. Also, for WoW64 processes (i.e. 32-bit running on 64-bit Windows) the "Software" key is redirected to Software\Wow64Node. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
