Whereever you installed Qt. If you took the PyQt4 windows binary
package, then I don't know :|

That looks good, now you just need to ensure that the postgresql dll is
also in your PATH when starting python so the qsqlpsql4.dll can find it.

If thats also the case and its still not working, I'd suggest to check
wether Qt really supports the driver via
QSqlDataBase.isDriverAvailable(). You may also have some luck with
checking isValid() after the addDatabase and maybe the lastError()
function to get a proper message out.
