I'm sorry, I carelessly mispoke. That last sentence should have read "During the installation I tried to install it in C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages, but the installation process wouldn't let me". So pygame was installed in Python23, not 24.

I'm surprised there is any trouble. The installer is built with the distutils that comes with Python2.3. Previously it has always found the correct Python version and installs it to the right place. The install file is just a big .ZIP. You could load the .EXE into winzip and extract it to the python2.3 site-packages.
