There is a missing DLL. Dependency Walker is a useful tool to solve this
kind of problems:

Once you know which DLL is missing, add it to your setup.py

ok so that got me a little further. The app now works on win2k and
windows 7 but on winXP i get this:

File "printorders.py", line 2, in <module>
File "win32ui.pyc", line 12, in <module>
File "win32ui.pyc", line 10, in __load
ImportError: DLL load failed: This application has failed to start
because the a
pplication configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may
fix this
problem.

Dependencie walker does not find any major issues. what am i missing here.

thank you in advance for your help.

You could try and find out what the __load statement in line 10 in
win32ui.py does.
