are you using a build from PythonWare or effbot.org, or did
you get your 1.1.4 installer somewhere else?

try running python with the -vv option, and make sure that
it's trying to import the right _imaging module.

if you can, check the DLL dependencies.  the standard build
for Python 2.3 uses the following DLLs:

    KERNEL32.DLL
    USER32.DLL
    GDI32.DLL
    PYTHON23.DLL
    MSVCRT.DLL

(but Python itself uses most of those; if there's a problem with
one of them, you shouldn't be able to start Python either... hm).
