Which version? Python 3.3 requires Visual C++ 2010 (10.0). > the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\VCExpress\9.0\Setup\VC\ProductDir This looks like Visual C++ 2008 (9.0). > is present and point to the vcvarsall.bat location. > PC restarted(just for fun). > > what is wrong?? I would have to guess that you've got the wrong version of Visual C++. You can install both 2008 and 2010 in parallel, if you need 2008 for something else. Hope this helps, -- Zach PS: In the future, it is very helpful to say which OS you're using since Python is usable on so many different platforms. In this case it's pretty obvious that you're using Windows, but there are still differences between Windows versions that mean knowing the version makes support easier.
