One of my first posts, however have been an avid reader for many months of these forums, & resort to request for help after trying what sems like everything I can think of to get scripts to work.

Environment: I'm operating XBMC on current Version 06-10-15 XBMC-CVS-T3CH. Have 250GB drive with E,F & G partitions, XBMC is on E:\Apps\XBMC. Practically all scripts fail (see log extract below) & I feel it is because somehow I've screwed up something in the path to import Python Modules (don't know how I've done this). Python 2.4 is installed as per the CVS with no changes & a range of downloaded scripts in the script directory.

My Error: When I run a script it fails consistantly with a ' ZipImportError' INFO: can't decompress data; zlib not available. I suspect the "12:55:58 M: 13721600   DEBUG:   msg: 'import site' failed; use -v for traceback" is a clue but pressing the white button & all the reading I have managed to do on this forum & elsewhere has not asssited me in establishing WHY is is failing & what to do to correct this - I'd greatly appreciate asssitance & happy to provide whatever additional info may be required to assist.


Many Thanks in anticipation
