To avoid all the hassle I suggest getting EPD: http://enthought.com/products/epd.php You'd get way more than just NumPy, which may or may not be what you need. I have installed various NumPy's on linux only and from source only which did require compilation (gcc), so I am not a good help for your setup. On the hand, I've done multiple EPD installations on various platforms and never had problems. Val
