Thanks for the quick reply Massimo. I had installed the win32 extensions already. But just tried again to be sure and noticed an error at the end of the installation process that I didn't spot before. So you are correct - lack of properly installed win32 extensions is the problem.
The error I got is described here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=3084013&group_id=78018&atid=551954 I'm looking for where the fix is and will update here if I find out any more. Tip for others: installing win32 extensions for Python 2.7 is a pain! You need a lot of windows SDK stuff to get anywhere). When I previously installed the extensions for Python 2.5 it all went fine... that'll teach me to upgade (or to be using Windows)!
