I've had a problem with this for a LONG time. I added it to my path in every way I could think of but here's what finally worked for me:

1. Right click on "My computer"
2. Click "Properties"
3. Click "Advanced system settings" in the side panel
4. Click "Environment Variables"
5. Click the "New" below system variables
6. in name enter pythonexe (or anything you want)
7. in value enter the path to your python (example: C:\Python32\)
8. Now edit the Path variable (in the system part) and add %pythonexe%; to the end of what's already there

IDK why this works but it did for me.

then try typing "python" into your command line and it should work!
