What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install WinPython 3.3.2.3 64bit on a Windows 7 laptop
2. Download the cx_Oracle package from http://cx-oracle.sourceforge.net/  (I have tried both the x86 and amd64 versions, though I have an x86 processor)
3. Install the cx_Oracle package to WinPython's site-packages directory
4. Importing cx_Oracle causes the following error:
     "ImportError: DLL load failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application."

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
For the cx_Oracle package to load and to connect to an Oracle database using SQLPlus

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
WinPython 3.3.2.3 64bit on a Windows 7 laptop

Please provide any additional information below.
