Used to be you'd get this error if you installed as a
non-admin user. Don't know if that's still an issue.
Possibility?

Not a possibility (afaict) -- I am an administrator, according to the
control panel.
Not too many ideas, then, I'm afraid. Apart from the obvious --
uninstall and try again -- how about running Python with the
-vv option:
python -vv
to get more information about what it's trying to get,
and/or running sysinternal's Process Explorer at the
same time to spot the DLL Dependencies.
I have seen a (not too similar) problem when running TortoiseHg
and the pywin32 extensions, since the shell import's TortoiseHg's
version of various pywin32 DLLs before I try to import them
myself for some other purpose, and the two versions clashed
dramatically (crashed Explorer hard, I seem to remember).
Just in case that rings any bells..
