Seems like blender have its own python and libs. You can try to install your stuffs to blender directly. For me works next dir: ...\Blender 2.63\2.63\scripts\modules

Besides it you are allways can hardcode the pathes directly in your code with sys.path.append("...")

More info about the modules installing here, read about python setup.py install --home=<dir> stuffs
