Hi Stephen,

Are you sure you installed Python bindings? Try to execute python from
a console, and write this:

>>> from osgeo import gdal

If you get an error, you need to install the bindings again. You can
get further information about how to install them here:
http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/GdalOgrInPython

Anyway, I think you can use this bindings http://pypi.python.org/pypi/GDAL/1.7.1

Best regards,
