title: installing opencv Anaconda2 on windows machine
body: <p>I'm trying to install openCV in a freshly installed Anaconda2 on a 64 bit windows machine with no luck. </p>
  
  <p>I downloaded 2.4.9 form the <a href="http://opencv.org/downloads.html" rel="nofollow">openCV</a> website and did pretty much which <a href="http://mathalope.co.uk/2015/05/07/opencv-python-how-to-install-opencv-python-package-to-anaconda-windows/" rel="nofollow">http://mathalope.co.uk/2015/05/07/opencv-python-how-to-install-opencv-python-package-to-anaconda-windows/</a> (and many others) suggested. Briefly, copying <code>cv2.pyd</code> from the opencv's <code>python\2.7\x64</code> folder to <code>Anaconda2\Lib\site-packages</code> folder. </p>
  
  <p>When I try to import it in python I'm getting the following error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>ImportError: DLL load failed: 1% in not a valid Win32 application.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>any idea what's wrong?</p>
