Hi, welcome to Python.
This is a common question and has been answered quite a few times on
this list, including quite recently. However, I can't for the life of me
find an example of such an answer in the archives! (Someone's sure to
help me out here).
In short, you'd do better to start up a console window (using Start >
Run > cmd.exe or any other way you choose). You can then cd to the
directory your code is in, and run the programs that way. The thing is
that, if your program looks like this:
<code>
import sys
print("Hello, World!)
print("I'm running Python version ", sys.version)
</code>
then, when you double-click, your program will run in a console window,
print its brief output, and exit, all before you've really noticed
what's going on!
Have a look here:

and here:
http://docs.python.org/3.3/using/windows.html
for some amount of help.
