And I also have Notepad++ on my computer.  I have a total of 3 ways of trying to run my Python programs.  I have tried and tried.  The books and the online tutorials don't mention or discuss the problems that I am having; I cannot run Python programs.  The computer itself it fabulously great, but I cannot get my Python files to easily run on it.  If I am sometimes able to get a program to run, it is just seems to happen by chance, and I am not able to do it again next time.  I feel frustrated with this situation, and need help.  I hope to hear from someone, please.

Stating "I cannot run Python programs" doesn't give us much to go on.

Read this first http://www.imladris.com/Scripts/PythonForWindows.html

If you still have problems tell us exactly what you are doing and what 
the error messages are by cutting and pasting into email, don't try to 
type stuff yourself.
