I have gotten couple of responses regarding this support question but as far as I understand, all supports are half-measured and led to no solution. I also was told that the build environment I setup has something wrong but no one can point to what is wrong. All I did was followed exactly the buildnotes that was part of edkii source published on tianocore.org. From whatever way I look at it, I can only deduct that the buildnotes are outdated, obsolete and does not instruct and led to fully functioning build environment therefore what is there is wrong. Is there responsibility lies somewhere that the notes should be updated such that it can be used for the new adopters? Thanks.,

Please check VCINSTALLDIR and VS90COMNTOOLS env value in the commonad line.- Those are the name of the env variable? if so, env variable consists of NAME=VALUE. What are the values?- What do you mean checking environment value in the command line?? C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows - what do i do if windows.h is not there? what should expect if it is there?

And, check windows.h in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows directory.

I started the cmd prompt using the VS2008 command prompt which should initialize certain environment variable not the normal dos prompt.

After run edksetup.bat --nt32, you can directly run cl.exe in command line. Could you type cl.exe and see what’s output?
