I wish it were an error in the Python code so I could fix it, but 
it works on all other machines (at least those with Intel). It's 
only on the HP625 with AMD that this error occurs. Another DLL 
(which isn't mine) also failed to load, although with a different 
error message. It might be just this particular model, or AMD, I 
dunno. I couldn't find anything about it on the internet.

Atm I'm using dmd 2.067.1, maybe compiling with GDC or LDC will 
fix it.
