New submission from Hamed J.I <hamed.ji at gmail.com>:

While try to run Python.exe version 3.1 or 3.2 RC2 on
Windows 7 or Windows XP SP2 get the following error:

Py_Initialize: Can't initialize system standard streams
Lookup Error: unknown encoding: cp720

after download and install cp720.py to lib/encodings get the following error:

Py_Initialize: Can't initialize system standard streams
TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not callable

this is while IDLE works fine
