You can try downloading and installing the Microsft Platform SDK( free
) which has the NTWin32.Mak and win32.mak files. You could use nmake.exe out
of that distribution too, though it is also included in the compiler
package. This may help....

You also need to run the initialization scripts( if you haven't already
) like vcvars32.bat out of your compiler's bin directory and setenv.cmd in
the Platform SDK installation. This should set the necessary variables.
