I am unable to perform import pyrealsense in Windows 7 64-bit with Python 2.7 in Anaconda (Similar to issue #31)

I've opened the example pyrealsense/examples/show_jupyter.ipynb and tried to run. The import pyrealsense did not work:

RuntimeErrorTraceback (most recent call last)

Finally I could install and run the examples. I had to install MinGW and set the enviroment variable (C:\MinGW\bin) in order to recognize cpp compiler.

@mpechoto I cannot solve this problem, could you explain more specifically? Why do we need another compiler?
