In principle it all should work, but I have not tried it myself recently on
Windows. I run it all the time on my Mac. I'll have to give it a try myself.
However, I need more details:

1) Which version of python for windows? Did you install my pygrads superpack
or you installed python by yourself? If so, which version?

2) Which version of pygrads?

3) When you open a DOS windows (cmd.exe) and you type

C:\> grads

does it start? You must have grads on your path for pygrads to work.

4) Start python and type

import grads
import grads.gacore
import grads.ganum
import grads.galab

Any error?

5) Instantiate a grads object by hand

ga = grads.GrADS(Bin='/path/to/grads')

Does it work?
