It might help to see the errors you're getting.

The steps that work for me are pretty simple (the generate.bat
script will print out usage help if invoked with the incorrect
or incomplete arguments):
In $TOPDIR (i.e., in the directory where you extracted the tarball),
enter at the VisualStudio command prompt the following:
> .\generate.bat /CONFIG:VC71 /BUILDDIR:<build-dir>
Your environment needs to be set up to use the VisualStudio command
line tools. You also need to have the uuidgen.exe program in your
PATH.
That's about all I can tell you. If this doesn't work Anton should
be able to answer any followup questions you might have.
