What *exactly* do you mean by "added python.exe to [your] path"? You
should add *the directory that contains python.exe* to your path.
What is the output of the "path" command in the command-prompt window
where you're attempting to run Python?
(Urgh.. attempting to dredge up long forgotten MS-DOS crud...)
