Python install package getting error with msvccompiler

I have already install python(x,y)2.7.6.1 in Windows7 64bit

and try to install a package "imreg" (from here)

python setup.py install

I am getting this error:

no module named msvccompiler in numpy.distutils trying from distutils customize msvccompiler

I have installed visual studio 2008 and Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7(from here)

but I don't know how to solve this problem

I solved this question by this way:

MinGW with C++ Compiler installed.

in " C:\Python27\Lib\distutils" create a file "distutils.cfg" and add these lines:

[build]

compiler=mingw32

the answer is from How to use MinGW's gcc compiler when installing Python package using Pip?
