I assume that you have installed everything properly. In your install settings you can choose if you want to assign the system variable python.as you can see from the point 3.3 of the documentation, you should:
3.3.1. Excursus: Setting environment variables¶
Windows has a built-in dialog for changing environment variables (following guide applies to XP classical view): Right-click the icon for your machine (usually located on your Desktop and called “My Computer”) and chooseProperties there. Then, open the Advanced tab and click the Environment Variables button.
In short, your path is:
My Computer / Properties / Advanced / Environment Variables
In this dialog, you can add or modify User and System variables. To change System variables, you need non-restricted access to your machine (i.e. Administrator rights).
Another way of adding variables to your environment is using the set command:
set PYTHONPATH=%PYTHONPATH%;C:My_python_lib
