Don't blame the poor chap here. Blame microsoft for that cryptic error message. "'nmake' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file." Does it mean 'nmake' is there and recognized as something else like a text file? How can a newbie understand that nmake is not installed. I have seen so many people not staring at the error messages just because they think they can't make a sense of the error messages. Which is true to some extent. I remember some case like this in when I was doing my engineering. After installing linux and using it for some days, it used to get boot error "fsck: check forced". I didn't know what "check forced" means and that was like a road block for me and all I could do was reinstall linux from scratch again. I didn't had access to internet then, otherwise I could have asked similar foolish(?) questions. I think we should be kind for people asking such questions and show them the right way instead of flaming.
