Installing Numpy - The System Cannot Find The File Specified (msvcr90.dll)

I have been trying to get numpy to install for the last several hours now, and I'm finally giving up and asking for help. First, I have tried: I was first getting a 'Unable to find

Solution 1:

You can install using the binary executable directly rather than from the source. For you 32 bit http://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/user/install.html#windows or as you pointed out for the 64 bit version from http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/

[EDIT: Changed based on the comments and added link to 64 bit version]
