If the numpy and scipy tests run then it is the timeseries scikit. I do 
not use timeseries nor windows so I do not know if you are using a 
binary version or built it from source. In the former case it probably 
means it was compiled for earlier numpy/scipy versions so you probably 
have to built it from source yourself. If you built it from source, then 
I suspect that you have not removed all traces of the old timeseries 
scikit and/or have not correctly built it from source - like removing 
the build directory.
