I am getting an error from the install of...
pywin32-203.win32-py2.2.exe on an NT 4.0 system.
It looks like the "import win32trace" statement is the point of failure and
gives the error message...
error: (3, 'CreateMutex', 'The system cannot find the path specified.')
Does anyone recognize this error?
(Note that the python22 directory is on the F: drive)
