Problem with PIL

[Anand]

Hi

 I installed the latest beta version of PIL on Windows NT. When I try
to
run one of the sample programs I am getting the error as follows:


$python player.py D:/users/anand/docs/docs/*.gif
loading...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "player.py", line 120, in ?
    UI(root, im).pack()
  File "player.py", line 51, in __init__
    self.image = ImageTk.PhotoImage(im)
  File "d:\python21\lib\PIL\ImageTk.py", line 68, in __init__
    image.load()
  File "d:\python21\lib\PIL\ImageFile.py", line 126, in load
    self.load_prepare()
  File "d:\python21\lib\PIL\ImageFile.py", line 180, in load_prepare
    self.im = Image.core.new(self.mode, self.size)
  File "d:\python21\lib\PIL\Image.py", line 37, in __getattr__
    raise ImportError, "The _imaging C module is not installed"
ImportError: The _imaging C module is not installed
Exception exceptions.AttributeError: "PhotoImage instance has no
attribute '_Pho
toImage__photo'" in <method PhotoImage.__del__ of PhotoImage instance
at 00D9301
C> ignored

I can find the installation file _imaging.pyd under "DLLs" directory
in the installation directory of PIL. What else am I missing here...

Thanks for any help in advance,

Anand
