installing PygreSQL and psychopg2 ?

Hello.
I was trying to install PygreSQL and psychopg2 in order to use python as front-end. I I recently started to learn Python, so I don't have any previos experience regardnig python.
When I tried to install by calling setup.py from command prompt ("setup.py install"), in both cases I had the same error:
 
"error: Python was built with version 7.1 of Visual Studio, and extensions need to be built with the same version of the compiler, but it isn't installed."
 
What does it mean ? What am I supposed to do?
 
Thanks,
 
Zlatko

This looks more like a Python problem than a PostgreSQL problem;
you'll probably get more help on a mailing list or newsgroup dedicated
to Python or the modules you're trying to build.  Here's subscription
info for the psycopg mailing list:
