can't get started

I have just installed numpy-0.9.8, scipy-0.4.9, and matplotlib-0.87.2 on a
Windows machine with Python 2.4.2.

When I import pylab, I get some Windows message box indicating an error in
multiarray.pyd and am kicked out of interactive Python.

Thanks for any advice?

Peace,
David S.

Please paste the exact error message here.

matplotlib-0.87.2 requires numpy-0.9.6. You will get an error otherwise.

I also had problems installing matplotlib with numpy on windows.
Basicaly, I installed matplotlib, didn't create the matplotlib rc file
(it isn't created by the installer), and it turned out, that by
default, pylab needed numeric, not numpy.

Now back to inspecting the internals of matplotlib :slight_smile:
