The above is contradictory. If you are using Qt 3.3.1 and were using PyQt 3.11 
then you must be using the educational or commercial versions. If you were 
using the commercial version then you would have a C++ compiler. If not, then 
you already have the SIP binary installed. PyQt v3.11 is not from 2002. Why 
did you rename sip.pyd? Did you uninstall the previous version first?

You need to make it easy for people to reproduce the problem, otherwise we 
can't help.
