Why XP can not run Python after being setting the PATH?

Hello Dennis:

I guess your comment is right.
However, I would like to install Python under directory
"C:\Program Files\Python24"

Also, I list some screen shot from my machine as follows:

C:\Program Files\Python24>cd \

C:\>python

C:\>"Program Files\Python24\python.exe"
Python 2.4.3 (#69, Mar 29 2006, 17:35:34) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)]
on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> ^Z


C:\>Program\ Files\Python24\python.exe
'Program\' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

C:\>python111
'python111' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

It seems that XP know there is python.exe there, but cannot run it
correctly if
i use c:\python

The only way works on my machine is to run with full path.

Maybe there is not solution to this problem:)?

Thank you all:)
