Thanks for your help

I was using Visual Studio 10 Express

I was using Visual Studio 10 Express

I'm marking as INVALID because we don't yet support Windows 8.

It looks like you have asked to build both static and shared libraries, hence the first warning. The second error appears to indicate you asked to use a system install of CLHEP. I'd recommend that you follow the installation instructions on installing on Windows 7 exactly first - that may resolve these.

if you are still seeing a problem, then I'm afraid this will have to wait until we can support Windows 8.
