So to be clear - you have a 64bit version of Windows, and you've 
installed python and pywin32 in both 32 and 64bit variants, *and* you've 
installed the COM object in both 64 and 32bit variants - is that correct?

If so, I suspect the problem might be that you've run makepy (or 
previously called EnsureDispatch etc) in the 64bit version but not in 
the 32bit version - check the lib\site-packages\win32com\gen_py 
directory and you might find the generated support in the 64bit version 
and not the other.

HTH,
