Just download the msi from the bitbucket site. You don't need to rebuild it unless you wanted to.

Ok thanks. Almost there.From the https://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame/downloads site:

The external libraries required to build Pygame for Pythons 2.6 and up.Just unzip the prebuilt directory into the root Pygame working directoryand run python config.py. Answer Y to use prebuilt.
1) Instructions aren not clear or accurate: what is the 'root Pygame working directory? Do they mean the Python folder?
2) There is no config.py file. There is an Include folder, Lib folder, and Setup_Win.in file that doesn't do anything. Right clicking there is no 'install' option, its not a python file. Its a text file that looks like this:

Not sure if there is still an issue but you will probably want to download it from the bitbucket site.
Last I checked (a month or so ago) the ftp download had issues with python versions greater then 3.3.1 which was fixed but wasn't updated on the ftp site.

You need to install the version of pygame for python 3.3. The one you installed is for python 2.7.

On my windows 7 PC, I installed Python 3.3.2 Windows x86 MSI Installer
Then I got pygame-1.9.1.win32-py2.7.msi
During the install of pygame it wanted to know where python was installed so I put in C:\Python33\ which is correct.
Then I read to check that Pygame is install correctly, type the following into the interactive shell:
>>> import pygame
and got this:

Why did it fail?
