Maybe it is a bizarre glitch on your system, or perhaps it assumes something is present which is there on my system and missing on yours. I see that part way through the install it downloads setuptools/pip from pypi. Did your system have network access? What happens if you enable the installer log by running: msiexec /i python-3.4.0rc1.amd64.msi /L*v logfile.txt Does it put any useful messages in logfile.txt? -- Duncan Booth
