Hi, So it seems it fails while trying to actually build 64bit native modules. Building (native) modules is done through node-gyp: https://github.com/TooTallNate/node-gyp
Since you are getting a failure about x64 I am assuming that you are actually running on a 64bit machine? If so, can you verify that you have installed the items listed on the node-gyp page related to Windows 7 64-bit building and try again? Hopefully that will solve your problem.
