[Tutor] Can not install pycrypto on Windows 64bit with cygwin(python27)

[Muse Gk]

Sorry, it is my mistake. I had installed python-2.7.3 32-bit on my
Windows 7 64-bit machine.

> ./x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: skipping incompatible C:\Python27\libs/libpytho
> n27.a when searching for -lpython27
About this error, I also do lots of researches with Google. I did not
find a solution or there maybe a solution which I just do not how to
do.

So today, I uninstalled python-2.7.3 32-bit and installed python-2.7.3.amd64.exe

lol, kill one error and the other one occurs.

Thank you, eryksun(). Is it time to throw in the towel?
I think it is the time.

BTW, I tried to install PyCrypto on my Virtual_Machine which OS is
Fedora_17 64-bit. It only took me no more than 2 minutes to success
perfect installation. lol
I must use Windows at least when I am still at school. Because my
major is Application Chemistry and some chemical related software only
perfect supported on Windows. What's more, people around me rarely use
Linux as their default OS, so am I. Though I am a little familiar with
Linux and fond of Linux, I can only use it with VirtualBox. :(
