Subject: [boost] [MinGW] [Windows] [build boost 1.57] Help required to build boost

I had submitted a GSoC application regarding developing a document library
for boost and i wanted to do something regardless of the results of
selection.
.
SO, i downloaded boost 1.57 source and tried to build it using MinGW
compiler that i downloaded with CodeBlocks IDE which i use.
When i ran :
bootstrap.bat gcc
I got error "Failed to build Boost.Build Engine".
.
The bootstrap.log file was :
###
### Using 'gcc' toolset.

.
I am NOT any expert but as far as i can guess, it tried to execute
"C:\Users\Abhinav" which ofcourse is NOT any valid command...
.
How can i build boost? Is there a way to use it without actually building
the source?
Please help!
.
