Summary: Can't load Python for pre-install script
Initial Comment:
I have the same problem mr_moose reported in Request ID
1066510: Can't load Python for pre-install script.
Everuthing went the same. However, I looked into my
C:\Windows\System32 folder to check how many
pythonxx.dll I had, as suggested by Mark Hammomd in his
"Installation Troubleshooting" page at
http://starship.python.net/crew/mhammond/win32/InstallationProblems.html,
and to my surprise I found only python23.dll and
pythoncom23.dll. This is weird, since I completely
uninstalled Python 2.3.4 before installing Python 2.4

Thank you for your kind reply. However, I solved the problem
through a different path. I installed ActiveState Python 2.4
and it worked immediately. Since I use Python only on Win32,
it seemed a good alternative.
Bye,

Hi gpascenso!
Good news on this - I followed the tips posted by spjenni
(on my bug report that you mention), and success! PythonWin
2.4 is now up and running .... :-)
One small glitch - you may get a message saying that the
dll mfc71.dll can't be found. You can get that dll at the
following URL -
http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?mfc71
So, do the following -
1 - Uninstall Python 2.4, then do a fresh install, making
sure you install it for all users, not just yourself.
2 - Get the mfc71.dll file , and copy it into windows/system.
3 - Install the Python for Windows extensions.
4 - Fire up PythonWin. It should now work :-)
Bye for now -
mr_moose
