Somehow, bjam doesn't always find Visual Studio. Anyway, for Visual Studio 8.0, I use (note the quotes)
bjam "-sTOOLS=vc-8_0" "-sVC80_ROOT=C:\Program Files\Visual Studio\VC" install >> "C:\Temp\bjam.txt" 2>&1
I prefer to have a copy of the output. If you don't want it, erase the >>

OK, I'm in boost_1_33_1.
Then execute:
bjam "-sTOOLS=vc-7_1"
which produces:
