Hi,

The installer was made under Windows 7. I'm not sure how to help you here. I don't even have access to an XP machine to test it or make an installer in it.

Installing manually shouldn't be too complicated. Winpython is very easy to install and the other requirements all have installers for Windows. See section 2.2 in the manual. 

When installing dependencies after Winpython, make sure you do it through the WinPython Control Panel (Just drag and drop the .exe installers into it). Also registering that version of Python with the system should help get all things in order (In the WinPython Control Panel, Advanced Menu, Register distribution). If some package does not install through WinPython, you must register WinPython with the system, and then just run the installer (without dragging it into WinPython Control Panel).

Let me know how it goes. It would be great if we could get it running on XP!

nope
i try to insall all the things about python and...

Here the log on the consolle after i try to open a file from the menu program

Hello World!

(python.exe:1180): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_device_get_source: assertion 'GDK_IS_DEV
ICE (device)' failed

Lets see...

1) (python.exe:1180): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_device... : That is not an error. It's perfectly normal.

2) The problem is related to PyGObject (PyGI). Did you download the latest (3.10.2 rev 18) from http://sourceforge.net/projects/pygobjectwin32/files/  ?

3) I don't have libgiognutls.dll or libgiolibproxy.dll anywhere in my system. It seems you are running a different version of PyGObject.

4) The paths have / and \ mixed together...

5) Did you run python from the Windows command prompt or from the WinPython Command Prompt?

6) To test if you have PyGObject installed correctly try running the following:

C:\WinPython-32\python-2.7.6>python

Python 2.7.6 (default, Nov 10 2013, 19:24:18) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win32

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

>>> from gi.repository import Gtk

>>> from gi.repository import Gdk

>>> from gi.repository import GdkPixbuf

>>> from gi.repository import GLib

>>> from gi.repository import GObject

 I don't know how to solve

[jpcaram]

What was the output when you ran the commands in 6)? Which import failed and what was the error?
