+'''Important Note:''' There seems to be some issues with installing PyFFI on Windows Vista. In order to overcome these right-click on the PyFFI installer and click on 'Properties'. Then go to the 'Compatibility' tab, and click the "Run in a different version of Windows" check-box. Select 'Windows XP Service Pack 2', or something similar. Click OK, then try and run the program again. It should install correctly, after which you can continue on to the next step.
