Problems running on hp dual core processor

[jim-on-linux]

Python help,

I have a number of clients running a program built with
python 2.5. One has just purchased an HP with a duel
core processor, 2.2G with .099g ram.

On the new hp, when they try to print they get an
import error;
File win32ui.pyc line 12, in <module>
File win32ui.pyc, line 10, in _load
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module
could not be found.

The file is there The only difference I could find from
their other machines is the processor.

I have people running my compiled python applications on single and
dual core processors with no problem. I suspect that you may just need
to compile your application with some different switches, such as
bundle=3 in py2exe for example.

I should note that I have had issues if I didn't include all the DLLs
that were needed. This error doesn't say exactly which DLL is the
issue. I recommend downloading Dependency Walker to find out what it
is:

Interesting... The only win32ui* on my machine (running v2.4) is a
win32ui.pyd (D, not C) and it is part of the PythonWin IDE obtained as

Oh, and /how much RAM/? ".099g" sounds rather small; my PDA has
".5G" of RAM and my desktop machine has 2.0G...

A .pyd file is a Python dynamic library file. It's a dll with a
different extension and a Python specific entry point. Dynamic libraries
are OS and CPU architecture dependent. It might be possible that the
computer has an incompatible CPU or a 64bit OS.

Hello,

Is it the same OS (XP vs Vista ...)?
Try to run a small script importing win32ui from CMD, it might give
you a better indication on which DLL is causing the problem.

As suggested by Mike, run DependecyWalker on win32ui.pyd
