Hmm, beiing a beginner with Python too, I had the same problem getting
things organised after installation on the W98se platform. A look in the faq
however did give a solution, overlooked in the accompagning tutorial. (at
least I didn't find it<g>)
Create the following line in your autoexec.bat and reboot your system.

SET PYTHONPATH=D:\Python21;D:\Python21\Lib;D:\Python21\Scripts

Obviously you have to change some, to point to your used root
directory/folder...

Hope this helps...;-))
