I am using: 1. windows 8.1 RTM(64 bit) 2. python (2.7 amd64) 3. py2exe (0.6.10a1)

Any comments will be greatly appreciated...

Sounds like you need a python runtime on the target machine. Does the error message give you any more information about the missing DLL? If there is no further information, there is a Dependency Walker program (depends.exe) that may help you identify the missing dll.
