> 	I will try again later but unless someone can give me other things to try or alternative directions I am probably out of luck as I know absolutely nothing about Python itself to troubleshoot with.  I also tried the windows install routines for gnue forms and runtime but it can't find gnue-forms when I try to start it and required me to install on my cramped C: drive.  I will probably try to move other things to my D: drive and then install everything on my C: drive if nothing else works.
