Cannyou send us the error, that helps a lot in trying to debug. 
Cut n paste the entire error text.

That suggests that there is nothing wroing with your PATH 
settings. They mainly affect how it works under DOS.

It may be that IDLE is simply giving you a traceback 
for sys.exit() which it does because it catches the exit 
and prevents you from dropping out of IDLE itself.

Let us see the error traceback and we can decide.
