I have no idea what this means and it doesn't look like it's coming from 
NXT-Python. Try googling the message to see if it's a problem with your system.

Googled various parts of the error. Found nothing. This is the console that 
nxt-python created, so I don't know where else a problem could arise. I'll try 
it on a different computer and see if that helps...

How did this go? Did you find out what was causing the problem?

I discovered PyUSB was not installed properly. Amusingly, that doesn't want to 
install either. Now trying all those steps on python 2.6.7.

Sounds like a broken python. Good luck with that!
