It's strange since the above command does not have anything with spaces. Joshua, could you go to

        C:\Users\My Name\Code\boost_1_55_0\tools\build\v2\engine

and run

        .\bootstrap\jam0 -f build.jam --toolset=vc11 -n
        "--toolset-root=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\Tools\..\..\VC\ "

there and send the output?
