Great, thanks. Do you have VS installed ? Did you install python for all users (I would guess so, but I am not yet clear on all the details on that matter).
I do not have VS installed. I just downloaded the official Python 2.6.1 msi installer and blindly clicked 'next' a few times. I then installed nose from the source .tar.gz.
Python was installed to C:\Python26\, which I assume means all users.
Hi, After much frustration and disabling my antivirus software (McAfee), I was able to get the 'import numpy' to work and tests to pass as expected. Of course after turning it back on and restarting the IDLE gui a few times, the 'import numpy' crashes. This also happens on the command line. This is clearly related to the antivirus software because enabling or disabling the 'on-access scan' is usually sufficient to failure import failure or success, respectively. Perhaps some thing to do with MinGW on Vista? I am running an Intel Quad system (QX6700) with Vista Business with service pack 1 - I don't think VS is installed. Bruce
