Zope on windows is packaged with own and right version 
of python, which is 2.3 for all current Zopes.

So you need to use the package for python 2.3
and not 2.4. Next, since zope has own python,
you either copy the module to zopes python
or change startzope.bat to refer to your
installed python2.3.

You cannot just point to or use 2.4, since 
zopes extension classes are compiled for 2.3.
