I guess I have to ask why you are compiling from source? The windows
installer works well on all somewhat modern versions of windows. I've never
had any trouble getting it installed and working usually first try. The
modest speed gains by optimizing processor specific can't be worth the
effort. I've never considered Athlon optimization for any of the versions I
have.

Download, install, use and have fun that's why we use python.

http://www.python.org/2.2.3

Is the location for the download.

Good Luck,

Alan

I am new user to python and was trying to compile the source for windows. I
would appreciate it if someone could help me with it PLEASE as I get hit
with a bunch of errors. I opened up PC/winmain.c in VC++ 6.0 and compile. I
am using Python 2.2.3 and windows 2000. 
 
Thanks a lot in advance!
