How to install mysql connector

Question

I have downloaded mysqlDb, and while installing it I am getting errors like:

C:\Documents and Settings\naresh\Desktop\MySQL-python-1.2.3c1>setup.py build
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Documents and Settings\naresh\Desktop\MySQL-python-1.2.3c1 
\setup.py",line15,      in  
metadata, options = get_config()
File "C:\Documents and Settings\naresh\Desktop\MySQL-python-1.2.3c1
\setup_windows.py",    line 7, in get_config
serverKey = _winreg.OpenKey(_winreg.HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, options['registry_key'])
WindowsError: [Error 2] The system cannot find the file specified

What can I do to address this?
