Hello
Having cx_Oracle (an Oracle database connector for Python) used it here where I teach for the last couple of years, and finding it so easy to use (and install) I was taken aback when I got an error message telling me it could not load the DLL (complete message below)
Third, I've read (on activeState site) about someone else having this problem which seemed to be resolved by correctly installing the appropriate versions of different software piece.
BUT no 1 : I works on my portable (that has the same configuration for OS, Python and cx)
BUT no 2: The same configuration gets the error message from our classroom workstations - after multiple testing, (uninstalling everything, python, Oracle, cx_Oracle,etc) , cleaning the registry, re-installing from fresh binaries ( Oracle works (SQL+) ) , the error stays...
HELP - Any hints, helps, things to look for, whatnot,
Many thanks in advance,

Have you installed any new Oracle software in this machine ? Or maybe, have you modified the PATH environment variable ?
This error usually means that your cx_Oracle.pyd module needs to load an Oracle DLL, but it doesn´t find it in the directories specified in the PATH variable, or it finds a DLL with the same name but different (and incompatible) version.
Hope this helps
