That reference to boot_com_servers.py is rather strange - it belongs to  
py2exe. Neither the console version of Python, nor PythonWin, use py2exe.  
Have you been playing with it? Do you attempt to execute PythonWin from  
inside an application packaged with py2exe?
I assume you get the message above just by opening PythonWin, by double  
clicking on its icon, ok?

No, the pywin32 package works fine out-of-the-box. You don't need (and  
should not!) change any file extension. A DLL is *not* the same as a .pyo  
file.

No, I was talking about the command line interpreter ("python.exe"), not  
the PythonWin application.

Which "queue"?

Can't tell...
