yeah it just prints a blank line but in my book i got which is about game programming it said somethin about going into the files and findin a colorviewer or something when i did that i couldnt find it anywhere

Okay. So your Pygame is fine. And should work properly as long as dir(pygame) shows the expected list of functions (you still haven't said whether or not you've done this).

colorviewer.py is just a basic Python script for testing Pygame. You don't need to run it. It's just a suggestion in case you're worried that Pygame won't work on your computer.

Sane wuick question, since where in this subject of Pygame. When i create a basic window it will not close properly even after the main operational while loop has ended...it just crashes any ideas?

The Pygame Documentation is a great reference. pygame.display.quit() will uninitialize the Pygame window. If you're running your program from IDLE, this call is necessary for the window to properly close. If you are running it via python.exe (by double clicking the .py file), the window should close without unitializing the display module. However, it's still best to call pygame.display.quit().
