I am getting an error from the install of... pywin32-203.win32-py2.2.exe on an NT 4.0 system.
It looks like the "import win32trace" statement is the point of failure and gives the error message... error: (3, 'CreateMutex', 'The system cannot find the path specified.') Does anyone recognize this error?
