The pywin32 post-install script seems to break with the current Python
3.1 builds, and as a result, the pywin32 DLLs were probably not copied
correctly.
Try re-executing the post install script by:
* Start a command-prompt by right-clicking on the shortcut and selecting
'Run as Administrator'.
* Execute '\python31\python.exe \python31\scripts\pywin32_postinstall.py
-install' (changing the paths as necessary).
It should succeed as it is running from a console, and you might find
that fixes things.
HTH,
