Installing Pygame (python 3.4) - windows 7 64 bit

I seem to be having problems installing pygame. I found the unofficial binary's from idf.uci.edu but they are whl files and i have no ways of extracting such files. Can somebody link me to a .exe file or tell me how to extract a whl file

Thanks

    1) 7zip unzips the whl file. Place pygame folder in the lib folder

    2) Alternatively place the whl file in the scripts folder. From command line navigate to the scripts folder and run "pip install and the file name" press enter and away it installs

    test)
    type import pygame in idle - no errors, no problems.
