[pygtk] Trouble with GTK

Hey folks. My first post, and I'm a Python novice.

Here's my problem:

    >>> import pygtk
    >>> pygtk.require ('2.0')
    >>> import gtk

    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<pyshell#2>", line 1, in <module>
    import gtk
      File "C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\gtk-2.0\gtk\__init__.py", line 
38, in <module>
        import gobject as _gobject
      File "C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\gtk-2.0\gobject\__init__.py", 
line 30, in <module>
        from _gobject import *
    ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified procedure could not be 
found.
    >>>

I'm running the official python.org 2.5 build on Windows XP, in 
C:\Python25. GTK is in C:\gtk. I also have PHP-GTK in C:\php-gtk2, but 
this directory shows up nowhere in my Paths.

Incidentally, I've also combed through WINDOWS/system32 for errant DLLs. 
I've done fresh installs for Python, GTK, Glade, pygtk, pygobject, and 
pycairo.

Also, my Paths seem to be fine: they include C:\gtk\bin; C:\gtk\lib; 
C:\Python25; C:\php; C:\php\pear in that order.

I'm sure I'm missing something very simple, but it's ruined my whole day 
so far. Thanks for any help.

Cheers,
Nate
