 If you still have problems then uninstall any other Visual Studio versions, remove all traces of previous installations (delete old Microsoft Visual Studio directories from C:\Program Files) and reinstall Visual Studio with the latest service packs.

 The getbuildtest.tcl step may fail on Vista with the message 'Fatal error: lnk1104 cannot open file "TempFile"' when CMake attempts to build the compiler test "cmTryCompileExec". This is be due to Vista/7 'User Account Control' blocking access to temp directories.

 ====Problems with svn checkout during build====
-Sometimes svn or cvs checkout or the CMake configuration process fails. As a workaround, run getbuildtest with the --update option a few times, until all the libraries are completely checked out and built. On Windows 7 usually at least one retry is needed (even when all anti-virus and search indexing software are turned off).
