No module named psycopg2

I'm still having problems initializing askbot on Windows. Look what I got whenever I ran python manage.py syncdb:

(ENV) C:\Users\Francisko\ENV\Whatzz>python manage.py syncdb
Traceback (most recent call last):

Well, so I try to install psycopg2 on Windows but it only allows me to install it on the main Python27 directory. As I wanted it to be installed on virtualenv, I tried with easy_install psycopg2 but it didn't worked.
