title: Python, install .pyd file: ImportError: DLL load failed
body: <p>I am trying to install the PyLZJB.pyd file from here:</p>
  
  <pre><code> https://code.google.com/p/pylzjb/downloads/list
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have downloaded the file and placed it in my Python27/DLLs folder where I also see some other .pyd files. I am on Windows.</p>
  
  <p>I have tried </p>
  
  <pre><code>import PyLZJB.pyd
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and</p>
  
  <pre><code>import PyLZJB
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Based on another answer I also tried:</p>
  
  <pre><code>import sys
  sys.path.append("C:\Python27\DLLs")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>before the import.</p>
  
  <p>I continue to get the message:</p>
  
  <pre><code>ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.
  </code></pre>
