NumPy installer can't find python path in the registry.

Cannot install Python version 2.6 required, which was not found in the registry.

Is there a numpy build which can be used with python 3.0?

+10  A: 

there is not [yet] a version of numpy that has been ported to Python 3.

the last update I heard from the people on the project was this: http://blog.jarrodmillman.com/2009/01/when-will-numpy-and-scipy-migrate-to.html

for now, if you need Numpy, you are stuck with Python 2.x

Apparently now NumPy works in Python 3.

Guido van Rossum (creator of Python) says he is keen to see NumPy work in Python 3.x, because it would enable many dependent libraries to move to 3.x.

Update 2010-08-05: NumPy version 1.5 supports Python 3.x, and SciPy will soon. NumPy 1.5 beta is available for download now.

The current development verson of Numpy is compatible with Python 3 -- you can get it from Numpy's SVN and build it yourself. It will probably be released later this year (probably in the summer) as Numpy 2.0.
