Here's a quick little page with some notes of how to install python and dependent modules.  This was done on python 2.7

 

1. download and install python 2.7.x from https://www.python.org/downloads/  

2. install python in the default directory  c:\Python27

3. download the ez_setup.py script from  https://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools   (save this file in c:\Python27 )

4. open up a command prompt 

5. type   cd %PYTHON_PATH%

6. type   "set PYTHON_PATH=c:\Python27"

7. type  "python.exe ez_setup.py"

 

Easy setup is now installed ....  to install PySerial continue the following steps

8. type  "cd Scripts"

9 type  "easy_install pyserial"

 

C:\Python27\Scripts>easy_install.exe pyserial
