Today I removed my MSVC2005 installation. Tehn I installed MSVC2008 following exactly the guideline
given in INSTALL.Win32. But when I want to compile LyX I get for every file that is compiled this
message:
Unknown compiler version - please run the configure tests and report the results
But what should I test and how?
I'm using SCons to compile. Here's the output of SCons:

So the compiler version is "6.0.5724.0". What is the problem? I couldn't find which file outputs the
error message. I checked the SCons script without success. Any ideas?
The compilation itself is successful, but the error message doesn't disappear after the first
successful compilation.
thanks and regards
