I've made some progress, but things still aren't working. One more note about my platform: I have python 2.5 installed and have never installed other versions.
The first thing I did was to figure out how to build with VS 2009. Instructions can be found at http://jeethurao.com/blog/?p=35. I built against the libraries that came packaged with the default boost install that came with the BoostPro installer For reference, my siteconf.py looked like this: BOOST_INC_DIR = [r'C:\Program Files (x86)\boost\boost_1_39'] BOOST_LIB_DIR = [r'C:\Program Files (x86)\boost\boost_1_39\lib'] BOOST_COMPILER = 'msvc' BOOST_PYTHON_LIBNAME = ['boost_python-vc90-mt-1_39'] BOOST_THREAD_LIBNAME = ['boost_thread-vc90-mt-1_39'] CUDA_TRACE = False CUDA_ENABLE_GL = False CUDADRV_LIB_DIR = [r'C:\NVIDIA\CUDA\lib', r'C:\NVIDIA\CUDA\lib64'] CUDADRV_LIBNAME = ['cuda'] CXXFLAGS = ['/EHsc'] LDFLAGS = ['/FORCE'] I then tried running test_driver.py and a dialog box popped up saying that the system could not locate python26.dll. But I never had python26.dll in the first place. It turned out that the libraries from the BoostPro installer were built against python 2.6, so I had to compile them manually on my system, which was python 2.5. I followed the beautiful instructions on the wiki for installing using mingw, only instead of using mingw, I used msvc. I also needed to build date_time in addition to python and thread. So then I tried re-running test_driver.py and my latest error is a dialog box that looks like the following: Runtime Error! Program C:\Python25\python.exe R6034 An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly. Please contact the application's support team for more information. The error appears 3 times, and after I make it go away, the following trace appears in my command prompt: Traceback (most recent call last): File "test_driver.py", line 472, in <module> import pycuda.autoinit File "c:\python25\lib\site-packages\pycuda-0.94beta-py2.5-win32.egg\pycuda\autoinit.py", line 1, in <module> import pycuda.driver as cuda File "c:\python25\lib\site-packages\pycuda-0.94beta-py2.5-win32.egg\pycuda\driver.py", line 1, in <module> from _driver import * ImportError: DLL load failed: A dynamic link library (DLL) initialization routine failed.
