10. Regarding installed softwares on your machine, how did you clean your
machine before installing Python(x,y) (multiple answers are possible):
b. you uninstalled any previous Python distribution (including the
official .msi)

What steps will reproduce the problem?

I had python 2.5 installed previously, but it is not installed now, though the 
C:\Python25 directory is still there, and has some scattered remnants left by 
the uninstaller.

Perhaps deleting the C:\Python25 and re-installing will help?
