First thing to do when asking "How do I do X in Python under Windows?"
is to stick -- python X -- into Google and you get, eg:
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/docs/ActivePython/2.2/PyWin32/win32api__GetSystemDirectory...
which suggests that the win32api module from the pywin32 modules has
the function you need.

And sure enough...
<dump>
Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Apr 18 2007, 08:51:08) [MSC v.1310 32 bit
(Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import win32api
>>> win32api.GetSystemDirectory ()
'C:\\WINDOWS\\system32'
>>>
