[SciPy-User] Installation Errors

[MJ Jenkins]

I am somewhat new to python and SciPy so I hope this is the right place to ask this question.  I am trying to install SciPy but I get the following message.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 181, in <module>
    setup_package()
  File "setup.py", line 131, in setup_package
    from numpy.distutils.core import setup
ImportError: No module named numpy.distutils.core

Can someone point me in the right direction to solve this installation error?  Thanks.
