If you look in the libs directory of your Python installation I suspect you will find a python27.lib and not a python27_d.lib. I believe that the _d.lib is the debug version of the Python library and your Python installation didn't include it. Elsewhere I've seen it suggested that the simplest way around this is to download the Python sources and build the release and debug versions yourself but I've never tried this. Alternatively change you build to use the release version of the Python .lib. You should be able to debug your own code but not the Python code then.
