If you are using Windows then you will be better off asking on a
Windows forum. This is a Debian (Linux) forum.

First you need to show what you did (the code) and tell exactly what
environment you tried to run it in.

----- example.py
#!/usr/bin/python
import os
# open the pipe
stdin, stdout = os.popen2('/bin/echo hello world')
# read all of the output into memory
data = stdout.read()
# report on the result
print "The program printed:"
print data
