yes. This is a totally different kind of problem. Two likely reasons:

a) the DLLs from Microsoft Visual C are missing.
b) the manifest included in your .exe is not working with the visual-C DLLs
of Python 2.6

Correct and offical solution for a): get vcredist from Microsoft, and run
it.

Solution I usually use:

- copy msvcp90.dll, msvcr90.dll and Microsoft.VC90.CRT.manifest into the
directory of your .exe


Solution for b)
use this manifest in your setup.py:

manifest_template = '''
<assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1"
manifestVersion="1.0">
  <assemblyIdentity
    version="0.6.8.0"
    processorArchitecture="x86"
    name="%(prog)s"
    type="win32"
  />
  <description>MyCare Card Browser Program</description>
  <trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3">
    <security>
      <requestedPrivileges>
        <requestedExecutionLevel
          level="asInvoker"
          uiAccess="false"
        />
      </requestedPrivileges>
    </security>
  </trustInfo>
  <dependency>
    <dependentAssembly>
      <assemblyIdentity
        type="win32"
        name="Microsoft.VC90.CRT"
        version="9.0.21022.8"
        processorArchitecture="x86"
        publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b"
      />
    </dependentAssembly>
  </dependency>
  <dependency>
    <dependentAssembly>
      <assemblyIdentity
        type="win32"
        name="Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls"
        version="6.0.0.0"
        processorArchitecture="x86"
        publicKeyToken="6595b64144ccf1df"
        language="*"
      />
    </dependentAssembly>
  </dependency>
</assembly>
'''

RT_MANIFEST = 24

and within the setup-dictionary ...

wxreport = dict(
    script = "yourscript.py",
    other_resources = [
                (RT_MANIFEST, 1, manifest_template % dict(prog="your
Progname")),
    ],
    dest_base = r"yourdestination",
<--other options-->
    )

best wishes,

Harald
