Well, that at least is one thing.

What happens if you try to compile a small file by typing the compile
cmmand used by TRY_COMPILE into a DOS box?
Something like:

cl.exe -o tst.obj -c tst.c

Or alternatively, could you post the error output from the TRY_COMPILE
command as found in the error log file?
