I tried to install the win32all.exe to work with Python 2.4.1 on a 
Windows XP machine.  Didn't work.  I got the following error message:

This application has failed to start because MSVCR71.dll was not found.

 From what I've found by way of Google, this is a common problem.  What 
is the work around.

After getting the error I installed Python 2.3.5 and win32all.exe for 
2.3 and everything seems to be working fine, but I would really like to 
work with the later version
