That error occurs when you're trying to build a Python library but don't 
have the appropriate version of Visual Studio installed.  If all you 
want is a standard Python 2.7 installation what is wrong with the quick 
link at http://www.python.org/ ?  If that's not what you want, my advice 
is don't waste your time trying easy_install or pip, which is what I 
guess you're using, get a windows binary.  Here's a good place if you 
can't find anything else http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ :- 
please don't be put off by the "unofficial" tag, I've never had a 
problem using any download from this site.
