1)
What happens if you just type "python" at the prompt?
If that works, it's the script that can't be found.
If it doesn't work, python can't be found. See below.
(On Windows you exit python with Ctrl-Z.)

2)
Will "c:\python22\python.exe" start python? If not, where
is your "python.exe"?

3)
If 2) worked, type "path" at the prompt. Does the path look
like you expected? If not, consult a windows expert.
