so i've seen dozens of fixes for this, but none of them worked for me. i went to cmd prompt put in the directory

c:python31\lib\idlelib\idle.py which launched the program but gave me the following errors...

Warning: os.path.expanduser("~") points to %USERPROFILE%, but the path does not exist.
Warning: os.path.expanduser("~") points to %USERPROFILE%, but the path does not exist.
Warning: os.path.expanduser("~") points to %USERPROFILE%, but the path does not exist.

please note that idle for 3.1.1 works when launched from cmd prompt but not via the shortcuts or from the menu. i've made double sure that 'run as administrator' is checked in properties and compatability is set for xp sp 1. 

i have made absolutely no changes to my system aside from the typical windows updates rubbish.
