I've installed and run Python and pywin32 in a VMWare environment and have had no trouble. This is not an issue with VMWare. Something is misconfigured in your XP and/or Python install. I'm assuming you installed Python before installing pywin32? j -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
