Hi,

For a quick test, I was wondering if you were able to try the official packages:

Python 2.7.5 (http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7.5/python-2.7.5.msi),
Numpy 
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/numpy/files/NumPy/1.7.1/numpy-1.7.1-win32-superpack-python2.7.exe/download),
Scipy 
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/scipy/files/scipy/0.12.0/scipy-0.12.0-win32-superpack-python2.7.exe/download),
wxPython 
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/wxpython/files/wxPython/2.8.12.1/wxPython2.8-win64-unicode-2.8.12.1-py27.exe/download?use_mirror=dfn).

These are the links to the current 32-bit MS Windows packages (if you
are currently reading this in the archives, you should find the more
up-to-date packages).  The reason is because there are currently no
official 64-bit packages for Numpy, Scipy, and wxPython.  Hmmmm, I'm
wondering if that is because the 64-bit code is buggy and has
precision issues!

It will take longer to download than to install all four pre-compiled
packages on a Windows system.  I don't think you need to be an admin
to do this.  It would be good to see if this combination of official
releases has the same terrible precision issue on your system.

Cheers,

Edward
